Existing PC ownership and saves

PC Early Access owners do not need to buy the game again. Keen’s launch FAQ supports carrying saves forward; restarting is optional.

There is a known exception: October 16’s Hotfix 1.0.0.2 skips corrupted characters while a further repair is developed.

Check the new save folder, selection tabs and missing-character limitation

Where Early Access players claim the rewards

These are Keen’s published instructions. Good Games Radar has not tested the redemption flow.

  1. Open the escape menu and select Redeem Add-Ons to claim the three Early Access decorative props.
  2. Eligible players can claim them repeatedly and place them in a friend’s world. The friend can remove the decorations but cannot place them independently.

Check everyone’s platform before co-op

Cross-platform multiplayer was unavailable at launch, with no arrival estimate in the FAQ. Use the compatibility guide for the distinct Steam and PS5 player limits.
