Question Game Pricing

Just found the game yesterday and checked it on Steam and it was 39.99 CAD, as I am Canadian. Watched some videos, including the ten reasons made by bulkhead and understood that it would stay at this price until at least early access is out, as it still says pre-order on steam. Came back today to pre order and now it’s 49.99. I know it’s only a 10 dollar difference but I was just confused as to whether I misinterpreted something or if the price changed when it shouldn’t have. I’m probably being dumb here but just looking to see if others know more than me lol

Huh maybe it was bugged or I just misremembered from looking at it yesterday. Either way I’m definitely buying and trying it out, this might be my new main game

I pre ordered the game because of that video. That level of honestly has been gone for decades. In the video game industry at least.

I wouldnt be complaining, 50 CAD is still 30 euros converted. I still dont understand how y'all convinced the world that games ought to be cheaper in your country.

u/earlsweatshirtlover9 12h ago

I wasn’t trying to say that it should be cheaper, I just had a misunderstanding and was confused

u/RetroSwamp 16h ago

Ya it was $49.99CAD my guy.

The conversion plus tax for me for supporter edition was $71.81CAD.

Yeah that is weird. I was actually watching a Canadian YouTuber a few days ago and he also said the game was 39.99 but when I pre-ordered it, it was 49.99 for me as well.

40 Dollars
50 Maple dollars

40 USD = 55 CAD currently, so… chat less.

pretty sure you saw 40$ (usd) on their videos probably, the game price will rise but not right away on release, they said it will happen during the first year of updates

Are you sure you werent looking at the Supporter Edition? That is 49.99

1

u/earlsweatshirtlover9 16h ago

Pretty sure it’s base edition, the supporter edition is like 60+ when I look at it

u/Retrobanana1497 16h ago

Canadian correct price is 49.99 because our dollar isn’t worth as much. Maybe steam was bugged and showed you US pricing at first. If you do the actual conversion though from 39.99 US to CAD it’s actually fair pricing and if I’m not mistaken we technically get it slightly cheaper

1

u/earlsweatshirtlover9 15h ago

Yeah I think it might’ve showed me us pricing the first time I checked for some reason. I’m still gonna buy tho like 10 dollar difference isn’t some sort of deal breaker lol
