- Fair Pricing for All: Regional Price Update! - 9 March 2026
Hi everyone,Recently, members of our community reached out to let us know that our pricing structure didn't feel fair in every part of the world. Because of the vast socioeconomic differences across different regions, the cost of our game was much "heavier" for some players than others.We want our game to be accessible to everyone, regardless of where they live. To fix this, we have overhauled our regional pricing!What’s changing?We have manually adjusted prices across dozens of currencies to better align with local purchasing power. In many regions, you will see a significant price decrease. Our goal is to ensure that the "value" of the game feels consistent, whether you are buying it in the US, Poland, Brazil, or Vietnam.To our existing players:For those of you who have already purchased the game at the previous price, thank you. Your early support has been the backbone of this projec…
