Alpha Pack Controversy: Clearing Up Confusion
The announcement of Alpha Demo Packs at Collect-A-Con has sparked discussion in the community about whether the base set’s Q1 2025 launch is still on track. Concerns arose that the Alpha product might indicate a delay or serve as a placeholder for the full release.
Charlie Hurlocker, GameQbator Labs’ Director of Business Development, addressed this directly on the official MetaZoo Discord:
“Alpha product is in support of base launch. Not a replacement for it. Not fine printing out of Q1 commitment. Just structuring the ramp. I know it can be tough to imagine. But we will get there haha. Looking forward to seeing you guys at Collect-A-Con!”
Hurlocker’s clarification makes it clear: the Alpha product is a tool to engage players ahead of the base set release, not a substitute for the Q1 launch. The team remains committed to delivering the full MetaZoo relaunch as planned.
Looking Ahead
With four Collect-A-Con appearances already confirmed and more on the horizon, GameQbator Labs is ramping up its efforts to reconnect with fans and build excitement for MetaZoo’s future. The Alpha Demo Packs, giveaways, and artist events are just the beginning of what promises to be a great year for the MetaZoo community.
