Angels Fall First 1.0 released on Steam July 11, 2026. The game first entered Early Access on October 1, 2015, so older guides may describe a pre-1.0 build.
Use this Angels Fall First release date page as the current, source-checked answer for this player task. The scope is intentionally practical: confirmed facts first, then clear limits where the official record is still incomplete.

The current release state
The Angels Fall First release date is July 11, 2026 for the 1.0 build on Steam. The date comes from two aligned official surfaces: the Steam store metadata and the developer’s Steam community announcement titled “Angels Fall First 1.0!”. That announcement says the ten-year Early Access journey reached its destination, while also warning players that the launch is a large passion project rather than a promise of perfect polish.
Steam also keeps the historical Early Access date visible: October 1, 2015. That older date still appears in some store metadata and explains why search results, guides, and forum posts can disagree about whether the game is “out.” For this wiki, the 1.0 announcement is the current status and the 2015 date is history, not a competing release window.
What the 1.0 announcement adds
The launch announcement calls out two Darsalaam variants: an Incursion scenario and a Territories version. It also mentions stability fixes and map improvements made during the final diagnostic period. Earlier Update 30 notes describe the tutorial, practice environments, bot improvements, controller work, and broad quality-of-life changes that prepared the build for launch.
This matters for players returning from an older install. A guide written before Update 30 may still explain the broad combat loop correctly, but its first-session advice can miss the new tutorial path, updated map presentation, or current version behavior. Start with the latest Steam build and then use the beginner guide rather than treating a pre-1.0 forum post as a complete manual.
How to verify future changes
Use the developer’s official Steam announcements for hotfixes, map notes, and stability updates. The news page on this site keeps a human-readable change log, while the updates page groups the most useful launch-era notes. Neither page auto-promotes rumors or live server claims. If a future announcement changes a date, platform, mode, or system, this page should be refreshed with the source and checked date before the visible copy changes.
What the release date does not confirm
The Angels Fall First release date confirms the 1.0 launch, not every requested feature. The checked sources do not confirm console versions, crossplay, cross-save, a story campaign, or a complete numeric weapon database. Those questions are kept explicit on the platforms page and source policy instead of being filled with assumptions.
