![]() ![]() ![]() We will at some point have greater discounts, but since the game has a long lifespan this will take longer than for other games. Since then, RimWorld has participated in sales at small discounts. That’s why for the first 7 years after it became available (2013-2020), RimWorld was never on sale. We want to attract players who are interested enough for that price to make sense for them by improving and expanding the game over years and years of active development (as opposed to seeking discount impulse buys). Our goal has always been to make a game that’s worth its full price. RimWorld is an institution that has lived and will continue for a long time as the community matures and we keep improving the game. The goal isn’t to release into a frenzy of hype, grab a bunch of sales and then be forgotten a year or two later. We’ve always planned for RimWorld to have a very long lifespan. It also saves us a time that would otherwise be spent constantly managing and updating community expectations, which means that we can get the actual game to you faster and better. Because honestly – we just don’t know the answer! This leaves us free to iterate and change things as needed without worrying about angering players who were expecting a certain feature to work a certain way, or were expecting a certain release date. So to reduce stress and disappointment when designs and dates change (as they always do, for good reasons) we won’t answer questions about future developments. This is the best way to create the strongest game design, but it also means we have no way of knowing how the game will develop before it does. – Ludeon uses an iterative development process that changed direction often. I want to know about future features, products, or release dates. For all these reasons we as the developer can’t offer cross-store access if you didn’t buy the game from us. If you buy from Steam or GoG or Epic Games Store, we don’t have any of your info, or your money, we can’t verify your purchase or your region (noting that regional prices are very different). This works because buying from us means actually buying from us. – Only as described above, where buying direct from us also gets you Steam access. If I buy the game on one platform, can I have it for free on another? (Note that to avoid fraud the system doesn’t give a transferable Steam key it has you login to Steam through Valve’s site and then registers the game on your account directly using Valve’s system.) – Yes! Everyone who bought RimWorld directly from us on can also register it to their Steam account for free by using the automated Steam registry system. Will I get the game on Steam if I buy it direct on ? I have an issue with payment or with the game.
