ArcheAge Chronicles had 59% positive feedback from 2,232 Steam reviews on November 5. Its rating remains Mixed, and XLGAMES has published a response plan for the first Early Access problems.

Several confirmed issues can stop progress. Some players cannot finish the tutorial, certain bosses fail to return after the player leaves their area, and a dungeon can lock up when the party disbands or its leader leaves. Fixes for the tutorial and boss spawns are ready for deployment.

Crashes and performance will take longer. XLGAMES plans to address some client crashes in the next patch and says optimization work will continue throughout Early Access. The current target for that phase is roughly 9 to 12 months.

The studio had already fixed disconnects and party behavior after the demo, as covered in our pre-launch report. The new list shows that different progression blockers made it into the live build.

Current status and update dates are available on the ArcheAge Chronicles page.
