According to the developer, the Early Access version of the game is to give players a chance to participate in the development of the game. Developer Jutsu Games estimates that it will take about 6 months to prepare all the features and content that they plan to add to the final version of the game.
The Early Access version of the Rustler is fully playable, and contains all the crucial features implemented, with major bugs fixed and performance tweaked. This means that interested players will not miss out on much when the final version does release later this year.
The final version of Rustler will bring in the following things:
- Additional quests and minigames
- Expand the variety of weapons, horses, and carts
- Difficulty balancing for the best player experience
- Improvements to the game’s world environment
- Additional performance optimizations
- An extra couple of surprises and implementation of player feedback
The console version of the Rustler is planned for a release sometime this year. So players on the console will need to wait just a bit longer when the full version releases. Post your comments below.
