Wondering about Early Access in The Day Before? Developer Fntastic has been showing off a steady stream of trailers since its reveal back in January 2021. And with the release a few weeks away, players are wondering when they can try the survival MMO.

Our The Day Before release date piece has all the latest information on the game, including trailers and a breakdown of its gameplay elements. Read up on how to survive in a post-apocalyptic America with the help of the Woodberry Colony.

When can you play The Day Before on Early Access

The Day Before drops into Early Access on December 7, 2023. This is only on PC as a console release date hasn’t been announced. Note that you can pay for the game only after it enters Early Access. After several delays, the game is nearly here. Considering the skepticism faced by the developer for not showing enough of The Day Before, it makes sense that you can’t order the game early.

While there’s a chance for a pre-order when it comes to the Xbox Series X|S and PS5, don’t hold your breath for the other versions. Currently, there’s no information on whether The Day Before will arrive on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, or PlayStation 4. This means that you may have to upgrade before entering New Fortune City along the American East Coast. 

That covers Early Access on The Day Before. Working in a team to scavenge resources in a gorgeous post-pandemic America sounds like a bold promise. But if the developer manages to fulfill it, The Day Before might just become one of 2023’s biggest success stories. Add intense firefights with infected hordes and deep customization options and The Day Before might just have a chance. Despite its rocky first appearance, players are hoping to be pleasantly surprised when the game drops in a couple of weeks.
