Mistfall Hunter Release Date
Launch timing, platforms, editions, cross-play, Game Pass, and discount window for Bellring Games extraction ARPG.
Mistfall Hunter launches July 29, 2026 at 6:00 PM Pacific Time, which is 01:00 UTC on July 30 for players in Europe, Asia, and Oceania watching the clock roll over. The simultaneous release covers Steam for PC (app 3282300), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series consoles with cross-play enabled so squads can mix PC and console Gyldhunters in the same ruin run.
Bellring Games developed the title; Skystone Games publishes. Games Press confirmed no pre-download — the game goes live at launch rather than unlocking a pre-load file days early. This page consolidates verified store and press details and points to gameplay prep on Getting Started once servers open.
Launch window by region
Exact unlock times can shift slightly by platform maintenance, but the marketed global beat is 6 PM PT on July 29:
| Region hint | Expected framing |
|---|---|
| US West (PT) | 6:00 PM on July 29, 2026 |
| US East (ET) | 9:00 PM on July 29, 2026 |
| UTC | 01:00 on July 30, 2026 |
| Europe / Asia | July 30 local morning or afternoon depending on timezone |
Enable auto-updates on your platform of choice so Bellring Anti-Cheat and base content install when the client unlocks — not before pre-load. PC specs live on System Requirements.
Platforms and cross-play
Steam (PC): Full client with kernel Bellring Anti-Cheat per store text. Requires DirectX 12, 45 GB storage, SSD recommended even at minimum spec tier.
PlayStation 5: Console release alongside PC per PlayStation reveal marketing. Cross-play pairs with Steam and Xbox players when account settings allow.
Xbox Series: Listed alongside other platforms with day-one Xbox Game Pass on console and Xbox on PC per IGN and Xbox Wire reveal coverage. See Game Pass for subscription details versus paid SKUs.
Cross-play is a headline feature for a PvPvE extraction game where squad composition spans roles from Classes. Link the platform account you want long-term before day one if you participated in Open Beta and expect cosmetic carryover.
Editions and pricing (Steam USD)
Steam and Games Press show two digital SKUs:
| Edition | Price (USD) | Notable contents |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | $24.99 | Base game |
| Deluxe | $39.99 | Base game plus cosmetic items and 2,500 Fate Coins per store description |
Standard buyers can upgrade to Deluxe anytime for $15.00 USD, unlocking the same bonus bundle retroactively per press reproductions. Full cosmetic list: Deluxe Edition.
Console store pricing may vary by region and currency. Deluxe Fate Coins and cosmetics are account-bound rewards — read platform-specific refund policies before buying if you only want the base extraction loop.
10% launch discount window
Games Press states all platforms receive 10% off from July 30, 2026 at 01:00 UTC through August 12, 2026 at 17:00 UTC. That window begins at the UTC unlock beat, not before the initial 6 PM PT launch hour on July 29.
During the discount, US list prices approximate $22.49 Standard and $35.99 Deluxe before tax. Confirm your cart on each storefront.
Xbox Game Pass day one
Mistfall Hunter is available at launch via Xbox Game Pass on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox on PC according to the ID@Xbox showcase trailer and IGN coverage. Game Pass grants base game access equivalent to Standard — not Deluxe cosmetics or the 2,500 Fate Coin bundle. Cross-play with Steam and PS5 still works for subscription players.
Open Beta and launch carryover
Games Press reported roughly 430,000 players in the Open Beta (June 15–22, 2026 UTC window per Steam news, with June 14 6 PM PT start in parallel press framing). Official messaging suggested cosmetics and some progress may carry forward on the same linked account when the full client goes live. Steam news specifically promises reclaiming Avatar Frame Bell of Return and Pose Finger Heart via mail on the same account at launch.
Beta experience helps with Returner Woodling bell habits but does not replace reading Patch Notes for day-one balance differences.
Season 1 at launch
Bellring’s public roadmap ships Season 1 Soul Hunt content at launch — Holy Weapons, Brandrgarde Cataclysm, Trophy Pillar, ladder tiers, Battle Pass, and new monsters. Read Season 1 for the full roadmap summary.
What to do before release night

After launch
Launch week usually brings server queues, hotfix patches, and discourse on Review threads. Expect day-one patches without treating rumor screenshots as official notes. We update guides when Bellring or Skystone publishes verified changes.
