Fear The Wolves
The Early Access for Fear The Wolves has been pushed back a bit as the closed beta for Fear The Wolves found a few things that needed work
If you were looking forward to the Early Access for Fear The Wolves to hit our PCs, then you will need to take a seat as it looks like it has been pushed back just a bit. It has been pushed back from July 18th to sometime this Summer as Vostok Games wanted to put some extra work into the game before Focus Home Interactive dropped it out there for order or purchase. It does not sound like there is anything completely wrong with Fear The Wolves, but the closed beta that recently concluded did have some things that were not up to their wants and needs so it was pushed. There is no new date as of yet to look for the game to come to Early Access. That is unless you want to figure out what a “few weeks” truly means when it comes to delays.
So far, Fear The Wolves has looked like a promising addition into the ever-growing Battle Royale genre and it does sound like the team knows when to push a title and when to hold it. Even though Early Access is another state for them to keep pushing it forward, they do sound like they want to make sure you want to keep playing for a game you paid for even as the development cycle pushes forward. At least as this all sounds. I mean, if Fear The Wolves did drop out there and was nowhere near what we have seen thus far, it would fall into the weird shovelware arena in the end. Let us just keep looking at this as a good thing for now and that they know what they are doing. I do hate to see when games fail or fall off the map due to trying to push out there before they are done.
Originally scheduled for release July 18, Fear The Wolves’ Early Access on Steam has now been pushed back by a few weeks. Focus Home Interactive and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. veterans Vostok Games have made this decision together after closely listening to the expectations and feedback of players in the Closed Beta, which has proven a vital part of the game’s ongoing development. The Closed Beta will extend until the new Early Access launch date, allowing players to continue their exploration of the hostile and radioactive lands of a devastated Chernobyl.
We’ve already seen tens of thousands of players battling in Fear The Wolves over the last week of the Closed beta. We are delighted that players are satisfied with the core combination of classic Battle Royale gameplay with original mechanics – particularly the players vs. environment, radiation hazards, dynamic weather, and unique end-of-game extraction system.
The positive community feedback encouraged us to delay the release of the Early Access to ensure the well-received core experience isn’t marred by technical issues. On top of fixing these issues, this delay will also allow us to further improve other aspects of the game, thanks to the masses of data and player feedback gathered through testing.
We anticipate that the extra development time will raise Fear The Wolves’ quality to a level at which players will be able to fully experience it’s unique atmosphere.
Fear The Wolves will release on PC in Early Access later this summer.
The release of the full game is scheduled for 2019 on consoles and PC.
