Applies to: Release date and platform availability for Valor Mortis, checked on October 14, 2026

Quick answer

Valor Mortis released on October 13, 2026 on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. On PC it is sold through Steam and requires Windows: the Steam listing marks Windows as the only supported platform, with Mac and Linux both listed as unsupported. On Xbox it arrived in Game Pass on day one, which the Xbox product page states directly. A 90-minute PS Plus Premium trial has been reported in the press, but no official page confirming it has surfaced, so this page treats it as unconfirmed. A Valor Mortis demo existed on Steam earlier in 2026; as of this check the game's store data does not list one.

The short answer

Valor Mortis released on October 13, 2026 on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. On PC it is sold through Steam and requires Windows. On Xbox it arrived in Game Pass on day one. There is no Mac, Linux, Switch or mobile version, and none has been announced.

Checked on October 14, 2026 — the day after release, which is early enough that a platform announcement could still change this page. The release date itself is settled.

Release date

The Steam listing returned the release date as October 13, 2026, with the store's "coming soon" flag already cleared. The developer's own launch announcement is dated the same day and opens by confirming the game is available. Both sources agree, and neither is a press report.

Platform table

The distinction worth keeping is between what the store data asserts directly and what has been reported. The table below mixes both and labels them separately.

Game Pass status

Valor Mortis is a day-one Xbox Game Pass release. Microsoft's own day-one Game Pass page carries a Valor Mortis entry dated October 13, 2026, and the store data embedded in that page records the same date as the game's Game Pass entry date. The page's own definition of what that tier means is explicit: "Day one games are only included with XBOX Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass". In other words, the game was on the service at launch rather than being added later, which makes Game Pass the cheapest route to playing it if you already subscribe — a materially different proposition from the $39.99 Steam price.

Concretely, the embedded store data lists the title under two Game Pass catalogue entries — Game Pass for Console and Game Pass for PC — both with a launch-day entry date of October 13, 2026, and Game Pass Ultimate is recorded on the same date. One candidate confusion is worth heading off: the Steam listing carries no Game Pass reference and should not be expected to, because the Steam release and the PC Game Pass release are separate routes to the same game.

Two related claims are less solid. A 90-minute PS Plus Premium trial has been reported by press outlets including Gamereactor, but this site could not find an official page stating it, so it is recorded as reported rather than as a confirmed feature. And the precise Series S and PS5 Pro enhancements remain unpublished by the developer.

PC-only caveats

"Available on PC" is doing less work than it sounds, and three details are worth knowing before you buy.

  • Windows only. The Steam listing marks Mac and Linux as unsupported. There is no native build for either, and nothing official about a future one.
  • Steam is one of two PC storefronts, not the only route. The Xbox app also carries the game for Game Pass subscribers and for purchase. Which one you use determines where your achievements and cloud saves live.
  • Storage requirements are the same on every platform tier. The listing asks for 60 GB on an SSD for both its minimum and recommended profiles — see the system requirements page.
On console performance figures: press coverage has reported dynamic 4K on PS5 and Xbox Series X with 30 and 60 FPS modes, a 60 FPS performance mode on Series S, and PS5 Pro enhancements. Those details come from press transcription of the developer rather than from a published official specification, and the developer has not published Series S resolution or PS5 Pro specifics. Treat them as reported, not confirmed.

What is not confirmed

Keeping this list explicit is the point of the page, because the gaps are where inaccurate guides fill in with guesses.

The developer did publish a dedicated Console Details video for PS5 and Xbox on October 9, 2026. It is embedded below because it is the studio's own explanation of the console versions, and it is a better source than any summary of it.

Sources and review scope

Console frame-rate and resolution figures and the PS Plus Premium trial are deliberately not presented as confirmed: they come from press transcription rather than from a published official specification, and are labelled as reported where they appear. The Game Pass claim is different and is sourced to Microsoft's own Game Pass page. This page is not a claim that every storefront or region was checked.

How this guide was checked

Checked on October 14, 2026 against the Steam store listing for Valor Mortis, the developer's own Steam announcements and Steam Discussions posts, the official Valor Mortis site, and the Steam Web API. Live details such as player counts, review totals and patch state change quickly and should be rechecked before you rely on them. Anything the developer has not confirmed is written as unconfirmed rather than guessed.

Not independently play-tested. This is not a claim that every platform or game version was tested. Source review: Oct 14, 2026.
