| Corruption of Champions IICorruption of Champions II | We're hoping to release the finished version in 2027. We plan to release updates every month with more content of all kinds. We have a very wide scope for the content in the game, with lots of choices the player can make, and this depth on top of the raw amount of playable content we have planned means it will take some time before everything is finished.read 11 Sep 2026 | 7 years 5 monthsuntil 31 Dec 2027 | 6 years 1 month | 82% | On the clock16 months left |
A game is in Early Access when the store lists it among its genres; the clock starts on the day the ledger saw it enter or, for a game that launched into Early Access, on the release date the store prints. The promise is the developer’s own questionnaire answer, kept word for word; only ranges and single figures are compared, open answers are listed as open, and answers the parser could not read say so. Graduations are recorded from 3 Sep 2026, so earlier years undercount them. A game whose questionnaire has not been read yet says “not read yet” under No promise (how). Data by SteamPeaks.com.
