Warhammer Survivors unlocked on 10 November 2026 at 10:00 GMT. The launch is simultaneous on Steam, GOG, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 1 and 2, iOS and Android. It is also a day-one Game Pass title on PC Game Pass and Game Pass Ultimate.

Live status and launch time

The official release information gives one global unlock: 10:00 GMT. That is 11:00 CET, 2:00 PST, 5:00 EST and 18:00 Beijing. The Steam page now shows the game as released, and Xbox Wire has a launch-day post confirming it is live on Xbox Series X|S and Game Pass.

Current status: Out now. The game is single-player, so there is no multiplayer server status to check. If a storefront or console does not show it immediately, refresh the store page or check the local platform store.

Price and launch offer

The announced base price is $7.99 / £6.39 / €7.49. Steam offers a 10% launch discountthat brings the US price to $7.19 and is scheduled to end on 17 November 2026. The Xbox store also listed $7.19 at the launch-day check. Regional prices and platform offers can differ, so the storefront is the authority for your account.

The 10% discount is an automatic storefront offer, not a redemption code. See the codes status pageif you are looking for a code list.

What is live on day one

  • The full roster: Auroch advertises 40+ playable champions across the two universes.
  • The full arsenal: 75+ weapons, including the demo set and launch additions such as Maleneth’s poisoned daggers.
  • All launch stages and modes: the demo’s Imperial Bastion and Great Parch are only part of the release.
  • Named bosses and threats: Ghazghkull, Vizzik Skour, the Great Unclean One, the Norn Emissary and Trugg the Troggoth King are named in launch material and achievements.
  • 51 Steam achievements: see the full checklist.
  • Game Pass: included in PC Game Pass and Game Pass Ultimate at launch.

Steam also lists launch bundles with Vampire Survivors, BALL x PIT and Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun 2. Those are optional bundles, not content packs required for the base game.

The Gloomspite Gitz at launch

Auroch’s launch-day Xbox Wire primer adds a full Gloomspite Gitz faction to the release coverage. Moonclan Stabbas are the swarm infantry; Squig Hoppers bounce unpredictably; Boinggrot Bounders charge with lances; a Loonboss on Giant Cave Squig buffs nearby Squig Hopper damage; and Mangler Squigs arrive in chained pairs where the surviving beast frenzies when its partner dies.

Rockgut Troggoths are slow, tough and regenerate, making sustained damage and poison attractive. Their leader,Trugg the Troggoth King, is an Extremis-level threat with a huge Ironshell Club, wide impact telegraphs and an arcane keystone that fires elemental projectiles capable of inflicting Burning, Poisoned or Bleeding.

Your first launch-day run

  1. Pick a universe first. 40K and Age of Sigmar have separate rosters, stages and progression.
  2. Start with a clean kit. Malum Caedo and Neave Blacktalon remain the safest first picks.
  3. Commit to one weapon and its passive. The demo recipes still point in the right direction; the launch build has more.
  4. Clear a rescue scenario. Rescues are tied to stage achievements and several unlock paths.
  5. Check the achievement list only after your first run. The names include launch-stage and boss spoilers.

Use the beginner guide for the movement loop, the evolution finder for known recipes, and the run planner for a loadout.

Player and review signals

At the launch-evening check, Steam’s official player API reported 10,036 concurrent players. That counts Steam only; Game Pass, PlayStation, Xbox, Switch and mobile players are not included. The Steam store review summary at the same check read Mixed, with 69% of 182 user reviews positive. That is an early sample with a small review count, not a final verdict.

Steam API snapshot, launch evening 10 Nov 2026. Player counts and review summaries change continuously.

Post-launch status

The first documented post-launch update was a small Traditional/Simplified Chinese localisation change on 10 November. Auroch’s launch post does not include a full changelog or a dated roadmap; it says the team wants to gauge community reaction before sharing what comes next, while new champions, weapons and enemy hordes are the stated direction. There is no confirmed DLC schedule yet.

The October demo’s recipes remain useful, but they are not the complete launch evolution table. We label demo-era routes and launch-era data separately, and the update log records each source change.

Official claims, press observations and community reports are kept separate. Where Auroch has not published a value, this guide says so instead of filling the gap.
