Soul's Remnant Release Date
When Soul's Remnant released, why you might see a different date in older coverage, and how long Early Access is expected to run.
The Short Answer
Soul's Remnant released in Steam Early Access on August 13, 2026. It is free to play, so the release date is simply the day you could start downloading — no purchase required.
That date comes from the Steam store page itself, which is the canonical source.
Date Details & Common Confusion
August 5?
No more wipes
If you saw gameplay before August — from the June 2026 public test or the Steam Next Fest demo — those were temporary test builds. The playtest history page covers that timeline.
What Launched on Day One
The Early Access launch build, per the Steam page: classless character building across four skill lines, 72+ skills, 1,000+ items, ~200 weapons, 700+ crafting recipes, life skills (fishing, mining, herbalism, gathering), around 100 monsters, 19 bosses, 3 dungeons, 200+ maps, and 150+ quests — plus parties, guilds, channels, an auction house, and player shops.
The developer expects Early Access to last roughly 6–12 months, with content expanding based on community feedback.
