The current listing

The full game is planned for Q4 2026 on Steam, checked 2026-10-07. A specific launch day, unlock time and timezone have not been published in the reviewed release field. The full game remains separate from the public Demo.

Platforms shown on Steam

The Steam listing currently flags Windows. This is not an exhaustive console-platform list, a crossplay guarantee or a hardware recommendation. Those questions require their own official evidence.

Demo, playtest or full game?

The full game is the main Steam application; the public Demo has its own application and access record. The September 10–14 playtest was a separate, time-limited event. Use official download guidance to choose the correct version.

Demo and playtest status

Demo: Available Now. Availability confirmed on the official store. Read the Demo overview for the announced content and access record. The September 10–14 playtest is a historical event: its invitation is not an active download offer.

When will the countdown start?

A live countdown needs an official release time and timezone. A quarter describes a window, and a calendar date does not establish a worldwide unlock moment. This page will show the numeric clock when that precise information is available; reaching zero will still require a separate check that installation has opened.

What to read before launch

Review the PC system requirements, then use the gameplay overview to understand the announced loop. The official store remains the place to confirm purchasing and access in your region.
