Tempest Rising was originally scheduled to be released on Steam on April 24, and players who pre-ordered the Deluxe Edition could enjoy the privilege of a week's early access. However, due to a mistake, the game was fully opened to all players a week in advance on April 19.
It is understood that this error originated from a setting problem related to the seven-day early access period. The early access, which should have been limited to Deluxe Edition players, accidentally caused all players to have immediate access to the game. Although developer Slipgate Ironworks and publishers 3D Realms and Knights Peak took quick action, they finally decided to allow all players to enjoy this early launch opportunity.
For those who bought the Deluxe Edition to get early access, this incident is a bit embarrassing. To this end, the developer is preparing unique in-game rewards for Deluxe Edition players to make up for their lost privileges.
"Storm Rise" is a game that combines classic RTS elements with modern ritual production technology and expression. Inspired by RTS masterpieces from the 90s and 00s, it includes classic base-building elements, but the story is set in an alternate modern warfare scenario.
