Hello everyone. We here at Funcom are extremely happy with the demand that has been for our Early Access program. That demand has been so immense, that we are now sold out! We know that several people will be unhappy to not receive their Early Access time, but please bear with us in the remaining days. So:
  • All English Early Access has sold out
  • Some Early Access still available in Germany and France
  • All Virtual items work will work on valid pre-order keys
  • Pre-orders on accounts that was later cancelled will have their keys/account disabled

Thank you and look forward to seeing you all in Hyboria very shortly!


This newsbit can be discussed in the forums right here.

God made women because mens brains are broken.

I wonder how many early access they allowed for?  500K?  250K?   Anyone care to speculate?

The pen is mightier than the sword if the sword is very short, and the pen is very sharp.

"The one you call messiah is a lie"--- Gary Numan

I doubt it was 1 million early access keys, I'd guess between 50k and 250k. I could be totally off the mark as only FC know the answer but 50k would be my lowest estimate and 250k the highest. Judging by the posters there's probably more than 50k in the early access, but only FunCrom has the answer to this riddle!

that makes sense with all of the problems, it gives them a couple of more days to fix things

Actually it doesn't. Not sure how you came into this conclusion. Pre-sales sold out does not mean the game will have a delayed pre-launch.

the early play option lets them do a soft-launch and hopefully fix any things that didn't show in beta.  More players than beta, yet less than true launch.

Makes sense.

Hurry though, because the Early Access is only available while supply lasts!
