Epic announced earlier today that those interested in playing Paragon early can pick up the Early Access Founder's Pack and begin playing on March 18. The Founder's Pack will run you $59.99 (USD) and grants you access to 13 Challenges, five boosts, a friend referral, and an exclusive skin.
From the start, our team set out to create a competitive MOBA in partnership with players. From the moment we could, we invited passionate gamers to join us in playing Paragon each week, and share their thoughts and ideas. We’ve worked hard to be responsive, to make changes and improvements with each weekly build.

Now, with the beginning of Early Access, we’re taking the next step in opening up the game to more people. Players who want to get a head start in playing with a small, enthusiastic community, and help shape the evolution of the game can join us by buying a Founder’s Pack. Paragon will be in free Open Beta this summer, so if you’d rather wait, we’d love for you to play then.

If you want to support Paragon and be a part of the community from the start, we want to give you an amazing value for your money. In addition to access to the game, each Founder’s Pack includes skins, Hero Master Challenges (which unlock Master Skins and emotes as you level up), and boosts at an enormous discount to regular prices. The Challenger and Master Pack also include an exclusive Founder’s Skin, and a free extra Founder’s Pack to give to a friend. You can learn more about Founder’s Packs here or at Paragon.com.

For those of you who want to buy a Founder’s Pack in the store, we’re excited to announce that, in partnership with Sony, we’ll be launching a Paragon: Essentials Edition. We approached the Paragon: Essentials Edition the same way we did the digital founder’s packs - it‘s a great value, with Hero Master Challenges, skins, boosts and more at a huge discount - as our way of saying thanks for getting in early and supporting Paragon. The Essentials Edition is available for pre-order today, and will be in stores June 7.

Paragon is designed so that all players can compete and win without ever spending money. All heroes are free, and cards are earned through gameplay.

As noted, if you do not want to pay anything for Paragon, you do not have to. Simply wait until the game is out of Early Access before you hop in. It's really that simple. Those who wish to pay for special bonuses can do so and gain Early Access to the game.
