VerifiedMoonlighter 2 Release Date: Version 1.0 and Early Access History

Current Steam listing
Steam shows Sep 2, 2026 in the release field and no longer carries the Early Access tag. The listed genres are Action, Adventure and RPG, and the platform is Windows.
- App ID: 2350790
- Developer: Digital Sun
- Publisher: 11 bit studios
- Platform shown: Windows
- Steam release field: Sep 2, 2026
- Current store state: released, out of Early Access
How the two dates fit together
November 19, 2025 is when the game became buyable and playable in Early Access. September 2, 2026 is when it left Early Access as version 1.0. Both are real release dates for different things, which is why search results disagree about them.
- Early Access start: November 19, 2025
- Version 1.0 launch: September 2, 2026
- Date first announced: August 5, 2026, in a first-party Steam post
- Physical editions: 13 November 2026, with Silver Lining Interactive
Console versions
The launch-day announcement says console versions are available now, in the same sentence that confirms the PC version left Early Access. It does not name a single console, and the Steam listing still shows Windows only. So consoles are officially claimed to exist without an official platform list attached.
