Is there a personal protagonist orbital ship hub/house or underwater hub/house? No.

Will there be a photo mode? Not at launch, but we’re looking into adding it post launch.

Is the game world open or following a strict story structure? Everybody’s journey through Adelpha starts and ends in the same place, but between that, you have lots of freedom in which parts of the world/story you want to tackle next.

Why do the Talans look and sound so much more human than in the first game? What was the reason behind that choice? This is mostly due to the progress in terms of facial animations and fidelity. Back then, the Talans didn’t have many details and very heavy voice-processing. When we made A New Beginning, we sat down to look at the original content and decided to re-evaluate certain design choices. While the original Talan designs were intriguing and unique, we decided to update them to a more detailed, more colorful and expressive version, similar to the update to Adelpha’s environments.

Why did you change Cutter’s look and voice so much? He looks and sounds nothing like the original! That’s mostly due to the evolution of Cutter as a character. In “A New Beginning”, Cutter is more matured. He is the father of a child and goes through a different character arc. Therefore, the writing, character model and voice performance changed accordingly.

What exactly is included in the demo version? The demo version consists of three segments: - Combat: clear one base using a preset number of weapons/upgrades, no time limit - Exploration: explore the world of Adelpha and its side quests, 20 minutes per access - Story: storyline of the village Sappa, 20 minutes per access (time pauses in dialogues)

How long is the game? If you rush through the main story, approximately 30 hours, but much more if you explore and do side quests.

A new PC demo patch (1.2) has been released. Console patch to follow soon.

• Removed the limited tries (every demo can now be played with unlimited tries)
• Optimized performance and reduced stutters and stalls
• Update on Gamor behaviour to avoid them getting stuck
