Malignus enters Steam Early Access on November 13, 2026. It is a Windows PC game developed and published by Mossbomb, priced at $19.99 USD during Early Access.
That date comes from Mossbomb's own website and press kit. It is not an estimate from this wiki. The Steam storefront can display November 12, 2026 in some regions; the developer's official materials still say November 13. The exact unlock time has not been announced.
Official sources
November 13, 2026
Mossbomb's homepage and press kit both give November 13 as the Early Access release date.
Steam display
November 12, 2026
The Steam store page can display the day before. Mossbomb has not explained the difference; its official materials say November 13.
The November 12 Steam display
Steam release dates can be displayed differently by region, but neither Mossbomb nor Valve has published an explanation for this specific discrepancy. What is clear: the developer's own site and press kit say November 13, and the exact hour has not been announced.
The practical answer is simple: plan for November 13, 2026, treat November 12 as a storefront display, and check the live Steam page for availability in your region. If Mossbomb announces a specific unlock hour, this page and the calendar file will be updated. We will not invent a time to make the countdown look precise.
Do not trust a countdown that invents an hour
Our countdown targets 00:00 UTC on November 13 as a date marker, not as a confirmed unlock time. Steam releases do not all happen at midnight, and Mossbomb has not published an hour. A site that shows a precise hour without a source is guessing.
Is the exact unlock time known?
No. As of November 1, 2026, neither the official site, the press kit, nor the Steam store page states an exact hour. The safest launch-day plan is to check the Steam store page for the live availability state and price in your region.
Launch status as of November 1, 2026
- Full game: not yet available.
- Free demo: available on Steam.
- Store page: wishlist and follow options; not purchasable yet.
- Exact unlock hour: unannounced.

Launch-day checklist
- Check the store page, not a countdown. Steam will show the live availability state for your region.
- Verify the local price. The $19.99 figure is USD; your storefront may show a different currency and tax-inclusive amount.
- Read the current build notes. Early Access launches with known issues. We will link the first patch notes from the updates page when Mossbomb publishes them.
- Do not assume demo saves transfer. No carry-over path has been announced. If your demo dungeon matters, wait for confirmation before deleting the demo.
- Check the system requirements. The published minimum is Windows 10 64-bit, 8 GB RAM, a GTX 1050 Ti / RX 560 class GPU with 4 GB VRAM and 3 GB storage. The full spec page explains the caveats.

What time does Malignus unlock?
Mossbomb has not announced an exact unlock time. The official site and press kit confirm the date, not the hour. Steam's storefront displays November 12 in some regions, which does not establish a midnight launch.
How much does Malignus cost?

Mossbomb has only announced Windows PC via Steam. No console, Mac, Linux or Game Pass version has been announced by the developer.
Does demo progress carry into Early Access?
Mossbomb has not announced a save-transfer path from the demo to Early Access. The demo contains everything in the current build, but that does not confirm that its saves will be compatible at launch.
