Ashes of Creation is coming to Steam Early Access this December

Intrepid Studios' long-in-development fantasy MMORPG, Ashes of Creation, is set to launch on Steam Early Access on December 11th. This move marks the next major phase for the game, which has been in various forms of intermittent testing since 2020.

In preparation for the Steam debut, the current Alpha 2 realms will be taken offline after a “send-off celebration” and will be wiped on December 1st. This will be preceded by Private Test Realms testing in late November to ensure the new build is stable for the Early Access launch.

During the announcement stream, the developers confirmed that existing customers with Beta 1 and Beta 2 access will be granted entitlements to play the game on Steam. However, for those who already own Ashes of Creation and are considering purchasing it again on Steam, the studio stated it is “investigating” potential alternate entitlements but has no firm plans to announce at this time. Moreover, Intrepid and Steam users will be able to play together.

Alongside the Early Access, the game will be getting the v0.18 Harbinger Update, which will introduce the new Harbinger system, open sea fishing, the Summoner archetype, QoL updates, a new Ren'Kai race, new world bosses, and mules.
