Ashes of Creation is ready to kick off a Friends & Family event (Alpha Zero) over the coming weekend. In addition, the team is preparing for more alpha and beta events throughout 2018. Intrepid also announced the pre-order program "storefront" that brings special packages to fans.
Each package comes with a variety of in-game items and access to various events:
- Wayfarer - $75 - Beta 2 access, 2 months game time, $25 in in-game credits, an accessory, and a discount on future cosmetics that are released each month
- Expeditionary - $150 - Beta 1 access and beyond, 4 months' game time, $50 in in-game credits, accessory, pet and a discount on future cosmetics that are released each month
- Voyager - $250 - Alpha 2 access and beyond, 6 months' game time, $100 in in-game credits, mount, accessory, pet and a discount on future cosmetics that are released each month
- Intrepid - $500 - Alpha 1 access and beyond, 12 months' game time, $150 in in-game credits, ship, plague lab, costume, accessory, pet, mount and a discount on future cosmetics that are released each month
Additionally, Kickstarter backers and Summer pledge driver backers will be able to purchase cosmetics as add-ons without having to purchase a pre-order pack. And of course, if you purchase a pre-order pack, you’ll get extra entries into future Alpha test drawings. Be among the first in the world to play Ashes of Creation!
When it launches, Ashes of Creation will cost the mere price of a monthly subscription to play. No additional purchase of the game client will be necessary. These pre-order packs are a way to get early access to the game, special exclusive cosmetic items, and bonus game time for those who are most dedicated to Intrepid Studios’ vision for the world of Verra.
