If your backer tier had access to the Backer Builds you should have received a key for them, and the links to pre Epic versions, on your e-mail. If you are asking for the retail release key. I belive we all should be receiving it at Decembr 3rd, when the game will be released. ---

Hopefully we can get it a few days before so we can pre-load it. ---

Be careful, I don’t think the 3rd was offically announced, just early december. I doubt that we will see preload, the download is also not that big in compairson to many others. ---

> [@Ryu](#): > > I don’t think the 3rd was offically announced, just early december That’s correct, @UnstableVoltage already said he was perplexed where this “December 3rd” date had come from, as nothing like it was ever said. Early December is the correct thing to say. ---

You’re right. The original release date was september 3rd. Then they postponed for december, no specific day announced. 3rd day got stuck in my head. ---

Honestly, based on the last BB, I think the December release date implies a game that either isn’t ready bugwise or fails to rise to the occasion in complexity and play. I’m hopeful they’ll postpone it and do the work that needs to be done to make the game rock solid. ---

We don’t know how their internal build looks like. If it is in similar state as Backers Build then they will need to work hard to make this game good. But it can be in completely other state. ---

I think the basic game loop is in BB5. IMO showcasing this was the purpose of BB5. But if you judge from thir october develpment update video, their internal build is improved comparing with BB5. Video here -\> [Phoenix Point October Development Update](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbbc6T3wQLk)
