Sandustry Release Date and Early Access Details
The official Steam listing gives the Sandustry Early Access release date as August 13, 2026. It identifies Lantto as developer, Hooded Horse as publisher, and lists Windows, macOS, and Linux support.
Confirmed Sandustry release date
The official Steam store listing gives August 13, 2026 as the Sandustry Early Access release date. Lantto is listed as the developer and Hooded Horse as the publisher. This is the confirmed date in the collected official source.
The page should not substitute an earlier demo date or a community estimate. Store pricing and availability can change by region, so no fixed price is asserted here. The Steam listing is the source of record for the release status summarized on this page.
What Early Access means here
The developer describes the Early Access build as fully playable while development continues. The stated plan was approximately one year in Early Access, with the explicit warning that timing can change. That is a development target rather than a guaranteed full-release date.
Community feedback is part of the Early Access process described on Steam. The developer expects to refine procedural generation and add content over time. Current players should therefore expect some mechanics, balance, and interface details to differ from older guides.
Platforms and demo
The official Steam listing provides support for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It also offers a downloadable demo. The collected Xbox link contains no supporting product details, so this page does not claim an Xbox release from that URL alone.
Steam lists a 64-bit Windows 10 minimum on Windows, with 4 GB RAM and 1 GB available storage in the collected requirements. The recommended listing raises memory to 8 GB and recommends an SSD. Hardware information can be updated, so check the live store before purchasing for a specific system.
Store features and languages
The Steam page identifies Sandustry as a single-player game and lists Steam Achievements, Trading Cards, Workshop, Cloud, and Family Sharing. The collected listing shows 16 achievements. These are store features, not claims about multiplayer or external services.
The listing also shows support for 23 languages. Interface, audio, and subtitle support can differ by language, so the current Steam language table is the precise reference. This wiki’s language selector does not change the game’s own localization availability.
Stated development direction
The developer plans additional content, refinements to procedural generation, more buildings, resources, production chains, quests, biomes, and technology during development. These are intentions described for Early Access, not promises of a specific patch date. The full version may also have a higher price.
Because Early Access plans can change, avoid turning the approximate schedule into a fixed launch countdown. Patch notes and the official store should be checked for current status. This page retains only the collected official facts and clearly separates the released Early Access date from future plans.
Players who are unsure can use the official demo to inspect the basic material-physics and automation loop. The demo does not prove that every Early Access feature is present. Compare its version and store description before relying on an older tutorial.
