Dear travelers, Asteroid: Pre-SEASON is the start of the season of Asteroid: The Burning Planet without including some of the features expected at launch such as access to the planet Vuur and the Story mode. It will then be possible to play freely to prepare for the arrival of the new season by carrying out Black Hole Raid battles, Black Hole Raid Max, quests and more. This decision was made following some technical problems in the development tools that will be resolved shortly. Furthermore, this will allow us to work and improve the quality of the Story mode and the planet Vuur at the launch of the game. At the same time, we have no intention of postponing the official release of the game. Therefore, this also serves as a global test and to give the possibility to play even to those who had not participated in the past beta tests. Although this is a "test" season, your game progress will still be maintained from Asteroid Pre-SEASON up to Asteroid: The Burning Planet and subsequent seasons. Missing features will be added gradually with free updates. If you have already purchased the Asteroid - Expansion Pass DLC, you will still receive the bonuses and content provided by the purchase. Asteroid: Pre-SEASON will be released on August 26, 2022. The functions NOT accessible at launch will be: - Story mode - Access to the planet Vuur - Wish - Superspace (as it is unlocked during the progression of the Story mode and is used to easily get to a planet already visited) - Celestial Gift - Controller support and touch screen controls (These two features will be added in a free update shortly after the release of Asteroid: Pre-SEASON) - Asteroid Online (online multiplayer mode coming by 2023) All other features announced and confirmed in both trailers and press releases will be available starting with the launch of Asteroid: Pre-SEASON. For more information on this, please keep an eye on our brand new Twitter account, Instagram and Discord official server. Thank you for your understanding and we apologize for any inconvenience caused. We would like to give a first taste of Asteroid to the whole world without further postponing the work. See you in System 97! ~ Alessandro (director of Alestore Inc.)
