When does HUNGER come out?

No release date has been announced. The Steam page still says 'Coming soon.' Good Fun Corporation's officially stated order is: Tech Test 3 (started June 29, 2026) → polishing → Open Beta → launch. An Early Access release in 2026 is the reported window, not a confirmed date.

Did HUNGER just release?

No. What launched on June 29, 2026 was Tech Test 3, a closed technical test. It is the first test players are allowed to show publicly, which is why gameplay footage suddenly appeared everywhere.

When is the HUNGER Open Beta?

Not announced. Good Fun Corporation has confirmed an Open Beta comes after Tech Test 3 and before launch, but has given no date for it.

Will HUNGER be Early Access?

The Steam page carries the Early Access genre tag, and coverage reports an Early Access build planned for 2026. The Early Access model is effectively confirmed; the 2026 timing is reported, not officially dated.

What would signal a date is close

Three tells worth watching: an Open Beta announcement (it's the last officially named phase before launch), the Steam "Coming soon" field changing to a real date (we check it every day), and the promised post-release roadmap dropping — studios usually publish those near launch. When any of these happens, this page and the status page get updated, and alert subscribers get an email.
