We hope this teaser whets your appetite. Deathground is releasing into Early Access on Steam (PC) in October 2025!
Now, if you’re all thinking ‘Wait, October isn’t in Q3?!’, well then you’d be absolutely correct! So, why the last-minute shift in the date?
Our original target release date had been set for a while, but as we moved closer, various factors including the timing of the Steam build approval process and our marketing plans didn’t quite align. Given the tight schedule and rather than rush things or launch without the proper visibility and support, we decided it was better to shift the date slightly (only just!) and avoid the Autumn Sale to give the game the launch it deserves.
With all that said, our Early Access release date is going to be announced later this week in our Official Early Access Launch Trailer!
We’ve been fixing bugs left, right and centre at a rapid pace thanks to the fantastic feedback and bug tickets submitted over on our Discord - and we’re not going to slow that pace any time before launch. We’ll be using this extra time to add a little more finesse and some features that we were going to include post-launch. More news over the next week!
Speaking of news…
Excitingly, content creators and press will finally be getting their hands on Deathground soon. We’ll be anticipating their reactions but we’re very much committed to taking onboard open and honest feedback and previews, and want to give these groups time to play and produce their respective content before launch.
Alongside all that, we’ll be posting a daily Deathground mini-update here in our Community Hub, leading up to launch. In these mini-updates, we’ll pull back the curtain on development progress and showcase lots of different things, including gameplay details, behind-the-scenes, developer interviews and Q&A. Additionally, what’s in store for the future of Deathground on the road to V1.0 with the reveal of our official Early Access roadmap. Exciting stuff, right?!
And if you haven't already seen it, our latest Devlog is also available to watch in full on YouTube!
Cheers for checking in! We truly appreciate your support throughout the years and especially during this time as we race down the Deathroad to release!
