Moadra, Gloomsoft’s sci-fi Metroidvania, released on 22 October 2026. On Steam it is a Windows PC download; the same release date is also listed for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch on Gloomsoft’s official Bluesky account and on PlayStation / Xbox store pages. US pricing on Steam is $24.99, with a -10% launch sale to $22.49 until 5 November 2026—prices and discounts change, so treat the store as final authority.

We do not list PlayStation, Xbox, or Switch prices here—those were not in our verified sources at publication time. Third-party articles (for example TheXboxHub on 22 Oct 2026) mention UK pricing on Xbox; use each platform’s store for your region.

Which platforms is Moadra on?

Platform Status (2026-10-23) Notes
PC (Steam) Available Steam platforms: Windows only (no macOS/Linux on the store page)
PS5 Release dated 22 Oct 2026 Playnews release roundup (2026-10-02); Gematsu

Gloomsoft’s official Bluesky post states release on 22 October 2026 for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, and PS5. That overrides older media lines such as Steam Hype (22 Oct 2026) calling the launch “PC-only for now”—console store pages and launch-day press share the same street date in the sources we cite.

Not confirmed: any “Switch 2” version, console-exclusive content, or console performance modes beyond what Xbox marketing tags mention generically. We also do not treat a third-party Russian feed post on Steam news as official platform confirmation.

For controller support on PC, Steam lists full controller support, Steam Cloud, achievements, and family sharing. DualSense and DualShock are listed in store categories; a pre-launch Steam discussion noted DualSense fixes shipped with the late demo update.

Moadra demo: release date, carry-over, and save rules

The Moadra demo released on 13 February 2025 during Steam Next Fest (fest ended 3 March 2025). Gloomsoft’s “Demo Out Now!” post states the demo stays available after the fest.

Carry-over (official):

  • Demo progress can transfer to the full game (Gloomsoft forum reply on “Demo progress”).
  • Demo achievements are recorded locally during the demo; they unlock in the full game after purchase (Gloomsoft Steam news, 21 October 2026).
  • The pre-launch demo patch added rebindable controls, scan logbook, and full demo localization (same post).

Save compatibility warnings (official / player-reported):
