I’m guessing there’s an unwritten and unbreakable commandment that states every 2023 game must release next month. As evidence, the action RPG slasherWayfinderis entering early access on August 15th. The game has some faintMMOflavours and comes from developers Airship Syndicate (the studio behindDarksiders: Genesis and Battle Chaser: Nightwar) and publisher Digital Extremes (responsible for the long-runningWarframe.) The game previously held various closed playtests, but now the metaphorical doors are being opened for more players.
In a somewhat convoluted twist, early access has been paywalled behind four different Founder’s Packs, depite the fact that the eventual 1.0 release will be free-to-play. The Founder’s Packs include the Base tier (£14), Initiate tier (£33), Awakened tier (£60), and the whopping Exalted tier (£99!). You can see what each pack gets you over on theofficial website. Spoilers: it’s mostly cosmetic sets with names like “Silo Firestarter Style." The video below also sheds some light on the kinda different packs.
