Delverium Enters Steam Early Access With Up To Eight Player Multiplayer
A game whose Japanese support was decided after a Game*Spark article drew local interest now arrives in early access with the full game already playable, which puts the question of a two-year content plan ahead of the launch itself.

Sagestone Games released Delverium into Steam early access on September 22, 2026. The top-down survival game is led by developer Scott Lowther, with BGM from BAFTA-winning composer Jeff van Dyck. It supports split-screen and online multiplayer for up to eight players. Early access is envisioned to last up to two years, with planned additions of enemies, biomes, items, NPC quests, and riding animals.
The game was announced in 2024 and its Steam store page went up the same year, followed by playtests and a demo release in 2025. The demo updated in February 2026 carried split-screen multiplayer. In the game, the player is a traveler who has awakened in an unfamiliar world, exploring a procedurally generated map, building a base, recruiting NPCs, fighting dungeon bosses, or farming at their own pace. Even at the early access stage, the entire game can be experienced.
