Dimraeth Release Date: EA Launch Timeline

Dimraeth released into Early Access on 15 September 2026 at 16:00 UTC, which is 18:00 CEST, 12:00 in New York and 00:00 on 16 September in Shanghai. That is the release date that currently applies: it is not a 1.0 launch, and there is no 1.0 date to give. As of 21 September 2026 the live build is 0.107.7725, six days after release and five days after the first post-launch hotfix. The studio describes the Early Access period itself as roughly 18 to 24 months (single source).

The release date and the unlock times

Timezone	Local date and time
UTC	15 September 2026, 16:00
CEST (Central Europe)	15 September 2026, 18:00
New York (EDT)	15 September 2026, 12:00
Shanghai (CST)	16 September 2026, 00:00

The store listing and the studio's own announcement agree: the store shows "Early Access Release Date: Sep 15, 2026", and the announcement gives the same date with a per-region unlock schedule. One database we checked, ModDB, lists a 14 September release, which is the same unlock seen from a timezone behind UTC rather than a second launch (single source for the database listing). The studio's "Official Early Access Release Date Trailer" went live on 2 September 2026, about two weeks ahead of the launch (single source).

15 September was the start of Early Access, not 1.0

Early Access releases are playable builds that are still being developed, and Dimraeth's store page carries the Early Access category with a version number, not a finished-release label. The current build ships three races and three classes, a level cap of 25 (single source) and an Act 1 story told across three chapters (single source); the "8 races and 6 classes" in the store description describes the 1.0 target instead. The studio's own summary is blunt about the stage the game is at: "Dimraeth is fully playable today as a co-op action RPG", with the caveat that Early Access exists to "expand the world around it and deepen every system". What that means in practice is on the EA status page.

The timeline so far

Date	Build	What we can confirm
19 September 2025	—	First playtest round began
2 April 2026	—	Public demo opened on Steam
15 July 2026	—	Demo closed
2 September 2026	—	Early Access release date trailer published (single source)
15 September 2026	not captured	Early Access launch, 16:00 UTC
16 September 2026	0.107.7694	First post-launch hotfix
21 September 2026	0.107.7725	Build live at the time of writing

The demo period is worth knowing about even though it has ended: roughly 60,000 players went through it, and the studio kept it open from April until mid-July before shutting it down. No build number is listed for the launch itself because the earliest build number we could confirm is the 16 September hotfix, and we would rather leave the cell empty than infer one.

Why no calendar for what comes next

There is no fixed schedule, and that is the studio's own position rather than our reading of it. Its Q&A says it is "not setting a fixed date as our priority is quality and reaching every milestone on our roadmap before we leave Early Access", and adds that "the pace at which we land major content updates (new zones, races, end-game systems) and act on player feedback will guide the timeline more than any calendar" (single source). The practical consequence for a release-date page is simple: we can list what has shipped, and we cannot list what ships next. The roadmap summary covers what has been promised in content terms.

Where the other dates you see come from

The official FAQ page still carries pre-launch wording — it describes a demo as planned and repeats other details written before release — so a date read off that page is not evidence of anything new. Third-party pages sometimes publish full patch calendars; those are not studio statements, and no such calendar exists in the studio's material. The two dates that are safe to rely on are the Early Access date above and the build numbers in the timeline table, both taken from the store listing and the studio's own posts. Where the release landed commercially, the Steam review total stood at 79.9% positive across 1,845 reviews (Very Positive in English, 80.6% of 901) when the review data was read on 21 September 2026 (single source) — a six-day snapshot, not a verdict.

If you are searching for a 1.0 date

No 1.0 date exists to report. The studio's Q&A gives a rough window, not a date, and describes what the full version is planned to add rather than when it will land. If a specific date starts circulating, the place it would be confirmed is the Steam store page and the studio's Steam announcements, followed by its Discord, where the studio says day-to-day patch notes are posted (single source). Until then, this page states the window and stops there.
