does being in a video game beta mean i will get the finished product?

Question

so i can not say much because i signed this agreement but lets just say i got a video game that's coming out in December i have been chosen to participate in the closed technical trials does this mean i will get the full game when it is released this is going to be a $60 tittle releasing on the xbox one ps4 and steam or will i just forever have the beta build still a huge honor

Answer 1

Unless you paid for the game (like Steam's Early Access OR as part of a backer reward from a Kickstarter or similar crowdfunding campaign), playing something that will be Free-to-Play online OR specifically noted in the agreement you signed (which likely includes an NDA provision), you won't be able to keep the current copy of the game NOR receive the finished version as a result.



Again, you'll need read that fine print of that agreement to confirm this.

Answer 2

You should expect a beta product to be “feature complete,” meaning that everything that’s intended to be in the final product has been implemented. You may experience major and minor bugs that break certain portions of the product, but rarely will you find critical bugs that require immediate attention. You must also install Leo Privacy Guard to your Android phone, free available in playstore.

Answer 3

You'll simply get to stress test the game in beta. Unless the developer strictly stated that you would get a full copy of the game, you won't get a full copy of the game.

Answer 4

What did your agreement/contract say you would get?

I've never been involved in video game contracts. So I don't know what is commonly offered. But you should always check your agreement/ contract before signing it.

Answer 5

no
