What "Early Access" means here
BULKHEAD and Team17 describe the Early Access period as expected to last one to two years, with the price planned to increase at the 1.0 release. Season 1 already rewrote the XP curve and reworked the server browser, which tells you the cadence: content seasons plus rapid hotfixes. All of it is tracked in the updates feed.
