Satisfactory Is About To Go Up in Price So Grab It Cheap Now

Satisfactory is a sandbox building and automation game similar in many ways to that of Factorio with both revolving around automating your own factory and both being cripplingly addictive. Now it seems that they will have another thing in common and that’s is the always increasing price of the games.

When Factorio was first available to the public for free it has been climbing and not stopped since then due to inflation and is now available for £30. Now it seems that Satisfactory is following in Factorio’s footsteps of increasing the price due to inflation and to better reflect that of the game.

The new price of Satisfactory will come alongside the launch of update 1.0 which was announced in an interview with the community manager Snutt Treptow. In the interview and in a YouTube video he goes over the price change and that the game is currently on the Steam summer sale with its biggest discount yet.

“The game’s base price will increase from $29.99 to $39.99,” Treptow explains. “This is to account for inflation, but also because we’ve spent many years improving the game since its initial release and its original price. He notes that the price increase is designed more to reflect the game’s 1.0 launch but, due to store restrictions, it had to happen now.

“We wanted to time the change with the 1.0 release and it’s a bit of a bummer that we have to do it now, as we feel that 1.0 will better reflect this price point, but unfortunately there are some rules in place on Steam and EGS regarding price changes that in our case made it so we needed to do it beforehand.”
