Satisfactory to get price hike following 1.0 launch

Satisfactory is a popular first-person open-world factory building game which was first released in early access back in 2020. Since then, the game has seen a bunch of updates and upgrades – bringing ray-tracing support with the game’s Unreal Engine 5 update and more. Ahead of Satisfactory’s 1.0 launch, the team have announced an upcoming price increase.

Making the announcement via YouTube, the team at Coffee Stain Studios said “We promised to let you know in advance if we were going to change the price of the game and here we are!” revealing that following the game’s 1.0 launch, Satisfactory will be going up in price from $29.99 to $39.99.

That said, you still have plenty of opportunities to get the game for much less, as Satisfactory is currently on sale for 50% off of the original asking price, meaning it has gone down from £27.99 to just £13.99.

Having been in development since 2016, it is an exciting moment to know that Satisfactory will soon be out of its Early Access period. Now is the best time to check the game out if you have yet to do so.

KitGuru says: Are you excited for the 1.0 release? Do you already own Satisfactory? Is the price hike justified? Let us know down below.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
