2015 looks like it could be even more zombie-packed than 2014 was, as Sony Online Entertainment has announced that H1Z1 will be hitting Steam Early Access on January 15th - or in about 5 weeks. The accompanying FAQ puts it at a very reasonable $19.99, too:
How much does Early Access Cost?
H1Z1 will be available for purchase through Steam Early Access for $19.99 USD.
What is Early Access?
Early Access is designed for those wishing to support the ongoing development of H1Z1 and be a part of shaping its future. Early Access allows us to develop H1Z1 side-by-side with the players and build lasting relationships with our community.
How long will Early Access last?
Our focus is on creating a great massively multiplayer zombie survival game rather than setting a timeframe for the duration of Early Access. We want to ensure that our players have the best experience possible at launch, so we want to take our time during Early Access to incorporate player feedback, work out any bugs, and adjust and expand features. Once we feel H1Z1 is ready, we will announce the next step in the development process. Sign up to receive our email updates and follow our social media channels to be in the know.
What will the game be like at Early Access?
At Early Access players can expect to see initial iterations of crafting, base building, combat, vehicles, circle-of-death, day / night cycle, weather, player vitals, hunting & forging, and, of course, Zombies, in the game.
H1Z1 is in the early stages of development, and it will continue to grow and evolve based off of the feedback we get from the players during Early Access. Players should anticipate an evolving feature set, bugs, incomplete content, missing features, and potentially game breaking issues. The H1Z1 development team will continue to create new features and may make significant changes based on the needs of the game and feedback from the players.
