- 50 Steam keys for the full game in a raffle tied to Ranked Run wins in the demo

The demo starts a new ranked season with a fresh leaderboard and includes changes from the earlier public playtest: a reworked tutorial, building shortcuts, L-shaped belt drags, a new defensive building called walls, league rank badges with a rank-up cinematic, animated T2 units, and an opening sequence where the player's Core crashes down from orbit.
Andri Weidmann of Metaroot said: "Building a factory is fun, but watching it fight someone else's factory is a completely different kind of satisfying."
