The Malignus wiki index

Every confirmed page in one place: launch facts, entities, systems, guides and tools. Built to be useful before the game is out, and to grow without guessing after it launches.

Scope and standards

The game is in active development. A wiki that pretends otherwise is not useful. This site distinguishes four states:

Official

Stated by Mossbomb or Valve in a store page, press kit or official post.

Official media

Visible in official screenshots, trailers or UI captures, but not described in text.

Named only

A name is confirmed, but its effect or numbers are not published.

Not announced

No source exists. We say so instead of filling the gap.

We do not publish invented creature stats, fake patch notes, made-up player counts or “tested” builds we cannot verify. Where a guide gives planning advice, it is labeled as editorial. The full standard is on the editorial policy page, and every claim is traceable through the source log.
