Heute ist es soweit: Wie bereits im Mai verkündet wurde, wird Factorio am Freitag, 14. August fünf Wochen früher als ursprünglich geplant erscheinen. Eigentlich sollte die Fabrikaufbau-Simulation am 25. September 2020 den Early Access hinter sich lassen, aber die unmittelbare Nähe zum ehemalig geplanten Verkaufsstart von Cyberpunk 2077 (17. September 2020) kam den Entwicklern nicht so gelegen.

Da CD Projekt Reds Prestige-Titel ebenfalls erneut verschoben wurde (auf den 19. November), war die Eile eigentlich gar nicht nötig, die laut pcgamer.com noch für einige Bugs sorge. Mehr als 150 Fehler müssten laut offizieller Website noch in Angriff genommen werden, zusammen mit 50 weiteren Problemen. Abhilfe soll primär das Update 1.1 schaffen. Es soll sich darauf konzentrieren, die "offensichtlichsten Lücken" zu schließen, statt neue Inhalte hinzuzufügen. Das Spiel wird auf Steam und GOG für jeweils 25,00 bzw. 27,49 Euro angeboten.
