The official EthrA Kickstarter campaign lives at kickstarter.com/projects/ethra/ethra-by-stonelabstudio and is linked from the developer's own website. The developers announced the campaign with an official video, and it started on September 8, 2026.

This page intentionally does not copy live campaign numbers — funding amounts, backer counts, and remaining time change by the minute on the project page, which is always the authoritative source.

What backers should check on the project page

Campaign details are the project's to change, so verify these directly on Kickstarter before backing:

  • Reward contents — what each tier actually includes.
  • Delivery format — digital keys versus physical editions (the campaign describes physical Collector's Edition contents such as a box, steelcase, artbook, soundtrack, and a figure; details can be updated during the campaign).
  • Regions, shipping, taxes, and estimated delivery times.
  • Kickstarter's own crowdfunding-risk explanation at the bottom of the project page.

Kickstarter vs. retail release

Keep three distinctions in mind:

  1. Backer tiers are not the retail price. Tiers bundle rewards; the full game's store price is a separate, still-unannounced number (see the release status page).
  2. Estimated delivery is not a release date. Crowdfunding projects carry development and fulfillment risk; an estimate slipping is normal, not a broken promise.
  3. Backing is not preordering. Kickstarter does not guarantee a finished game; read the project's risk statement and back accordingly.

Some reward tiers mention access to a private Steam demo or closed alpha/beta — those specifics live on the project page and should be verified there, alongside the playtest, which remains the public way to play.

Frequently asked questions

Is this the official EthrA Kickstarter?

Verify the project URL and its creator before backing: the official campaign is the one linked from the developer's own site, as shown above. Watch out for copycat projects.

Is the Kickstarter price the final game price?

No. Tiers are reward packages, not the future Steam price.

Does backing guarantee the announced delivery date?

No campaign can guarantee that. Crowdfunding supports development; delays are a known risk that the project page itself acknowledges.
