Game devs have once again led Valve by the hand to a great, if obvious, Steam update: Official 1.0 Early Access release dates

Every now and then Steam adds a feature that makes me go, 'Huh, that wasn't here already?' Today's one of those days as Valve is finally letting Steam Early Access developers list a 1.0 release date or, at least, a 1.0 release guesstimate.

The new Steam update now provides developers with a "dedicated space to display the date when a game plans to exit Early Access and officially launch 1.0," a blog post explains. Since Early Access games are so subject to change, teams can choose to list either an exact date or a more vague window, like a simple year or quarter, under a game's usual Early Access disclaimer.
