The highly anticipated Gray Zone Warfare hit early access today. Will the shooter with phenomenal visuals threaten Escape from Tarkov?
UPDATE #5
The first server issues arise when over 27,000 people were playing the game simultaneously. At the moment, the studio is experiencing significant server load in Sydney, Hong Kong, and Amsterdam.
UPDATE #4
The GZW card on Steam already looks as it should. Other versions of the content are located below the standard game version and have been labeled as "Upgrade."
UPDATE #3
The Tactical variant has disappeared from the GZW card on Steam. As a result, the first version that can be purchased is the standard edition.
UPDATE #2
Developers have informed that they are working with Valve to improve transparency on the game card on Steam.
UPDATE #1
The game Gray Zone Warfare launched earlier than the devs suggested on the official Discord. As a result, we also learned the official prices for each version - we updated them in the breakdown included in the original message.
Note that the amounts are different from what the developers presented in the official list. Your main purchase should be the base game, which costs $34.99, and additional levels can be unlocked as DLC by paying the specified amount on the game card on Steam.
Original message (April 30)
The devs of Escape from Tarkov haven't been getting good press lately. The issues they are currently facing seem to be related to the launch of the studio Madfinger Games' tactical shooter, Gray Zone Warfare, which will be available in early access today, April 30th.
- The game will be unlocked today and will only be available in the version for personal computers (Steam).
- The standard version of the game was valued by the devs at $34.99. Furthermore, more advanced versions of Tactical, Elite, and Supporter have been prepared, which come with an additional cost - the prices are available on Steam.
Here, you can watch the premiere trailer of the game, which will be released along with the debut of the title in Early Access.
