Excellent news, Survivors!
You've been asking us for a while, how long is the game going to be in early access? When is its full release? We are elated to announce that Stranded: Alien Dawn is leaving Early Access and heads for a 1.0 release on 25 April 2023. But that is not all, Stranded: Alien Dawn is heading to the Epic Games Store, Xbox and PlayStation, and is available for digital pre-orders RIGHT NOW. Purchase Stranded: Alien Dawn now to receive an early adopter bonus content, this early adopter's bonus will continue until 09 May.
We couldn't be more excited to share this news with you, and to be able to share this wonderful planet survival sim with an even bigger audience.
If you've been a part of our Early Access period, or if you're picking the game up for the very first time in April, we wanted to give a huge thank you for your support, your feedback, and your discussions about the game. We couldn't have reached this point without you.
Stranded: Alien Dawn is a planet survival sim in which you build and manage a small group of survivors who have recently landed on a beautiful, but dangerous alien world. It's up to you to instruct them to gather food and resources, build shelters, and find ways to keep them safe, all while managing their physical and mental needs. Be prepared to have your survivors pushed to the brink by limited resources, unpredictable weather, illness and injuries, and hostile alien creatures. The next challenge is never far away!
Jump into one of two distinct scenarios, all with different narrative settings, challenges, and goals, and choose your group of survivors from a pool of individuals with their own skills, traits, personalities and stories. These factors all come together to create wholly unique experiences, where no two playthroughs are the same.
You can pre-order now on the Epic Games Store, Xbox and PlayStation, or you can jump into the Early Access version right away and start playing. Should you decide to pre-order you'll get some nice Early Adopter bonuses!
You'll get Wooden Planks as construction materials for Floors, Walls, Doors, and Roofs. These will work the same as existing wooden materials, but offer up a fresh new look for your buildings. You will also get access to a variant model of the landing pod in the Crash Landing scenario. With this installed, a new Landing Pod will be selected at random from the default and the alternate model. If you've already purchased Stranded: Alien Dawn in Early Access, you'll get these items automatically at full launch.
Stranded: Alien Dawn is launching for £29.99/$34.99/€34.99 across all platforms, but you can get the Early Access version on Steam at a lower price point ahead of the 1.0 release until 25 April. In addition to this, Stranded: Alien Dawn will be available in 10 different languages at launch. See below for the full list:
