How Much is Starsand Island Going to Cost? Edition Differences

Starsand Island is one of the most highly anticipated cosy titles in the genre, with players looking forward to the upcoming release ever since last year. Its beautiful animesque visuals and captivating cinematics have been well-received, offering a small movie-like sequence for players to enjoy.

Recently, the upcoming Early Access launch was announced, giving players the opportunity to learn more about the release. Of course, it's going to be in a pre-release build, but it's still something for players to look forward to.

Currently, the title is set to launch with two different editions for players to support Seed Sparkle Lab's development process: the Standard and Deluxe Editions. Both of these are in Early Access, so the pricing might be subject to change as Starsand Island advances through its development.

What's Included in Starsand Island's Standard Edition?

Starsand Island's first edition is priced at $27.93 USD (roughly £20.49 GBP), which is a lower price than players were originally expecting. Though it doesn't have what the Deluxe Edition includes, it does come with some extra bells and whistles, meaning that those supporting the Early Access won't go empty-handed.

The Standard Edition comes with the base, alongside the Chinese New Year Furniture Set and the Neo-Chinese Outfit. It's not exactly clear for how long these items are going to be available, or if they're just a permanent addition to the launch.

According to the information available, the Early Access pricing is set to be a 30% off, meaning that after the official launch, it's set to increase to $39.99 USD (roughly £29.29 GBP). However, this Early Access pricing might increase steadily throughout the course of the Early Access until the full launch.

What's Included in Starsand Island's Deluxe Edition?

Now, for those who want to support the release with the Deluxe Edition, it's going to cost them back $41.93 (roughly £30.71) throughout the Early Access period. However, for those who are already sold on the title and want to get everything there is out of it, it's the perfect opportunity to get a little more bang for your buck.

The Deluxe Edition comes with everything included in the Standard Edition, in addition to three exclusive pieces of content: the Classical Furniture Set, the Elegant Formal Outfit, and the Pumpkin Carriage. It's essentially everything you could possibly want out of a ball and gown dream, including the Cinderella carriage and everything.

The edition will be raised to cost $59.99 (roughly £49.94) at the time of release after the Early Access period ends. Though it's worth reiterating that we don't know the actual pricing strategy that Seed Sparkle Lab has for Starsand Island's Early Access, so it might steadily increase throughout the period.
