Welcome to Elderfield released on September 10, 2026 for Windows through Steam. The developer's launch announcement identifies it as the complete version 1.0.0 rather than an Early Access launch. Steam also lists a separate downloadable Demo.
The release timeline.
| Date | Milestone | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Before launch | Public Demo updates | Demo changelogs document a separate pre-release build and should not be used as full-game patch notes. |
| September 10, 2026 | Full game launched | The Steam store records the release date and the launch post labels the release version 1.0.0. |
| After launch | Free updates planned | The launch post says more updates are intended. A plan is not proof that a particular fix or feature has shipped. |
Where the full game is officially available.
Confirmed on the current Steam store page, with Windows 10 64-bit listed in the system requirements.
Officially Steam Deck Verified. That compatibility badge is distinct from a native Linux release.
No Switch, PS5, or Xbox edition or release date appears in the official launch sources checked for this update.
Price can change by region and date.
During the September 15 US-store check, Steam displayed a US$17.99 standard price and a temporary launch discount. Regional pricing, taxes, bundles, and promotions can produce a different checkout total, so use the current Steam listing rather than treating an archived number as a permanent price.
The Demo is listed separately and can be a lower-risk way to inspect the presentation and basic controls. Demo progress, content, balancing, and availability should not be assumed to match the current full build.
Do not mix Demo notes with 1.0.x guides.
- Full release: Steam App ID 3195440, launched as version 1.0.0.
- Demo: Steam App ID 3195680, maintained as a separate product entry.
- Patch claims: a Demo changelog does not establish how a task, item, or balance value works in the full game.
- Future updates: announced plans remain plans until a release note confirms delivery.
