October 6th 2020 is the Early Access release date.
The full launch is on August 3rd.

Yah, this is a steam problem and honestly annoys me too. I want to know when the game released, not when the game was playable, especially if they are going to separate the reviews into "EA" and release.

This had me so damn confused.

How did one get access to EA?

They really should update the Steam page to show the new actual release date.
Especially given that it was brought forward and there is some confusion about it.

You're basically paying to be a slave for a few years.

Participating in the manufacturing of the game by playing a low-grade version of it and giving the developer feedback.

I skipped the slave routine and jumped in recently when I discovered what they were actually building.

It wasn't just a video game.

Larian built the equivalent of The Great Pyramid of Giza.

I mean, technically speaking, I would like Steam to update how the present a store page for a game. So instead of it saying a game was released that is in early access it has the following:

Early Access Date: 2020
Release Date: 2023

If a game never went to early access, either not include it on that game's store or have N/A. This way consumers will know if a game was ever in early access and how long it was there for after a game was released.

ha!

I wanted to ask this question for a while but felt stupid!
this October 6th on the steam page plagued me a while now. (bought this game a month ago)

thanks for the clarification.

and, btw: a full restart is required?

From what I understand Act 1 you are playing now is not the same Act 1 you will get at full launch. So a new game is probably required.
