Does Dungeon Defenders: Awakened have micro-transactions planned?
Dungeon Defenders: Awakened will not have micro-transaction systems in it. We’re focused on releasing a retail product with future DLC.

Is Dungeon Defenders: Awakened online only?
You can play Dungeon Defenders: Awakened online and offline with local co-op (up to 4 person splitscreen).

Is this just another Dungeon Defenders: Eternity?
The short answer is no. The long answer is HELL no. DD:E was a different product entirely. We have no plans to repeat history when it comes to that.
We came up with Dungeon Defenders: Awakened as our first smaller-scope project as a new team. If we want to remain employee-owned/controlled (which is the dream!), we needed to prove that we’re the capable stewards and re-earn that trust before diving right into Dungeon Defenders III (which we have SO many slick plans for).

If I get $X Tier does it include all the previous tier rewards?
Each tier has it’s own set of exclusive rewards. When the pledge says “All Previous Pledge Specific Rewards,” that means the individual specific extra rewards that are exclusive to each pledge. Most pledges include one or more copies of the game, but those are listed separately from the additional pledge specific rewards.

Is there local splitscreen co-op?
Yes, there will be support for four-player local splitscreen co-op on all platforms that Dungeon Defenders: Awakened is released on.

I purchased a tier that has digital goods related to Dungeon Defenders: Awakened, Dungeon Defenders, and/or Dungeon Defenders II, will they be sent to me on release or sooner?
We plan on getting codes out for digital goods as soon as we are able to after a successful Kickstarter campaign.
Last updated: March 06, 2019 07:53
I purchased a tier that has physical goods, when will I receive them?
These goods take time to process as we need to wait until after the Kickstarter to confirm purchases. We’ll collect backer shipping information and keep you updated on the status of items.
Items can be shipped to backers in North America, Central America, South America, Europe, and Australia.

I purchased a tier that has multiple copies, do they all have to be the same platform?
They do not! You can choose which platform you would like each copy on.
Last updated: March 06, 2019 07:53
Do I get multiple copies above the $35 and $100 tiers?
No, those rewards are exclusive to those tiers. We will have a backer-specific store soon after launch, with opportunities to pick up various items for a reduced price.
Last updated: March 06, 2019 07:53
Do the multiple copies I receive get all the other bonuses for each tier?
No, the extra rewards are for the main backer of the project. The additional copies are there to share with your friends!

Do I get the Dungeon Defenders Complete Edition (2012) above the $15/$16/$17 tiers?
No, this is an early bird backer exclusive to thank those who took that first leap.
Last updated: March 06, 2019 07:53
Do you have plans for cross-platform support?
This is something we’d love to do, but we do not have concrete plans at this time. One of our goals is that we want all our players enjoying the game together, so we’ll try to make it happen!
Last updated: March 06, 2019 07:53
There was cheating in Dungeon Defenders, do you plan on preventing that?
Yes, we have plans already setup to prevent such behaviors in any online play between players.
Last updated: March 13, 2019 07:55
Are there any previous benefits or tie-ins for owners of the previous games?
We don’t have any current plans for this.

Is this game more like Dungeon Defenders or Dungeon Defenders II
We’re aiming to capture the magic for Dungeon Defenders, providing an up-to-date experience. Lessons learned from developing Dungeon Defenders and Dungeon Defenders II are guiding us into making a player-first experience that we hope blows your mind!
Last updated: March 13, 2019 07:55

What is BackerKit?
BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!
The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.
How does BackerKit work?
After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.
I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?
The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.
Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.
To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.
How do I update my shipping address?
BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.
When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?
That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.
I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?
As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
