Early access release soon?

Humble bundle shows this game as a Steam early access game.

I don't know if they plan any early access for Stalker 2 in the future, but Humble bundle announcing it is very unlikely.

I find the prospect of STALKER 2 entering Early Access very unlikely. The developers already delayed the release several times, stating that they want to launch the game in the best possible state. Early Access completely contradicts that idea.

And yet I really think that an early access can have many assets : devs could get easier access to funds to finish the game if they need it, have a lengthy advertising coverage thanks to updates, avoid any CP2077/Stalker 1 controversy because the deal will be "You can play the game but keep in mind it's still work in progress", get on the market before some other big games will emerge (i'm thinking of GTA VI for instance), and use the contribution of the fan community to get constructive feedback to make this ukrainian gem shine even more with time.

It's just my opinion, many people may disagree with me and feel the early access is a bad thing. And the devs know best what to do, of course.

I would expect an announcement of stalker 2 into early access to come from their youtube and twitter channel before humble bundle.

Can this game get any worse?

That's a mistake on the Humble's website. We contact our partners to delete this info, because it's false.
