Developer The Fun Pimps says that the next update will not only usher in new gore, challenges, and improved controller support, but also move the 11-year-old game out of early access for the very first time.

It's not all good news, though, particularly if you already own the £30 zombie game on console.

I think it's best not to get caught up worrying about the "early access" tag and to just evaluate what the game is like right now instead.

Factorio and Last Epoch are both games that I bought in early access (they've both fully released now, though) and, at the time I purchased them, I think they were worth my money. They've both only improved since that time, which is great, but even if they were never updated again after I bought them, I would have considered them very worthwhile purchases. I played both for hundreds of hours in their early access states and had fantastic times with them (and still do post-full release, too).

And then, conversely, there are plenty of games that are fully released that aren't worth your time or money despite not being "early access".
