ATTENTION PARASITES!!!

Pathogenic is officially launching on 16 Jul 2026!!!

That's right, we have a release date! Check out our new trailer, featuring gameplay in new levels with new organelles coming soon to the full game:

The Lungs and Heart will be completing our full set of vital organs for you to infect. These new areas will have their own thematic defenders and environmental hazards, posing unique challenges to your pathogen’s conquest. And don’t forget, new levels also mean new boss fights. Are you ready to take them on?

Good new is, your pathogens will also receive a boost to their arsenal. A total of 7 parasites will be playable in the full game, with more organelles, mutations and layout evolutions available at their disposal. We can’t wait to see you breaking our game with all kinds of ridiculous builds.

And alongside the release date, we have another surprise for you when Steam NEXT Fest arrives next week.

New Pathogen Incoming

The shapeless Amoeba will join the demo soon as a new playable pathogen in the upcoming Steam Next Fest update. Unlike all other existing pathogens, the Amoeba does not have pre-defined shapes. Instead, you can add new organelle slots and shape the Amoeba yourself as your pathogen grows with every battle.

This new pathogen will start as a tiny blob. As you fight through the human body, your pathogen will grow, adding new organelle slots and combo possibilities. Customize and define your parasite as you evolve, and design a truly one-of-a-kind pathogen each run.

Alongside the Amoeba, we'll be adding additional challenges and language support in the Next Fest update as well. For those of you looking for tougher battles, 4 new challenges will be coming to the demo to put your skills and knowledge to the test. Japanese and Korean will soon be supported, just to make sure the pathogens can spread across the world regardless of languages and borders.

Thank you again for waiting so patiently and supporting our small indie project throughout this infectious journey. The incubation period is almost over, and we can't wait to unleash this deadly plague of broken combos and over-the-top destruction upon Steam.

In the meantime, we'll continue sharing sneak peeks of our upcoming content and community submissions on our socials. Join our Discord to encounter fellow parasites, and follow us on YouTube, Twitter, and TikTok to get the latest news!
