Space Engineers seems to be stable and bug-free at this moment and there are still a few days left till October 23, so we decided to do a prelaunch test-run for a limited period of time.
We will run one (or more) three-hour window during which Space Engineers will be available for purchase on our web site. If you follow us on Facebook or Twitter, you will be notified.
If you buy the game during this window, you will receive a steam key and you will be able to install and play the game immediately. Even before October 23.
We hope that this decision will make some of you happy and will help us test the game even more thoroughly. If you experience any problems, please consult our Troubleshooting page.
Estimated schedule: next day, sometime about this time
Important note: there are going to be discounts on Space Engineers and Miner Wars 2081, please make sure you understand them before you do any purchase (otherwise you may lose a few dollars). Read more: forums.keenswh.com/post/discounts-special-offers-6575409
