At a glance

What the official Beautiful Light pages publish about PMC progression, Traders, quests, rewards, and the RPG-like progression frame.

Steam names a PMC Progression Skill Tree and 3 Traders in its Early Access plan. The count of three is attributed to Steam. The FAQ describes operator progression and quests, without supplying the same three-Trader count.

The Steam progression wording links quests, Traders, rewards, and an RPG-like progression tree. It gives the framing of progression, not the rules or values behind it.

The FAQ says development plans may change. This page does not reconstruct a complete skill tree or numerical economy and offers no advice based on a played build.

The plan names a PMC tree and three Traders

Steam is the source for the PMC Progression Skill Tree and 3 Traders wording. The FAQ separately describes the intended progression and quest relationships. Neither is a performance test by this site.
