Slug Disco released Pathogenic on Steam on July 16, 2026, and announced Stationbreak, a roguelite from Broken Spaceship, for PC.
Slug Disco launched Pathogenic, a roguelike twin-stick shooter, on Steam on July 16, 2026. The game casts players as a pathogen invading the human body, fighting immune cells and rival parasites across procedurally generated organ stages. Players choose from seven initial parasites and collect over 120 types of organelles and mutations to customize their combat style. The demo, played by over 110,000 people, earned an Overwhelmingly Positive rating on Steam, and the title accumulated over 100,000 wishlist additions before release. A 20% launch discount runs until July 31. Pathogenic supports Japanese and is available for PC and Mac.
Before Pathogenic's release, Slug Disco announced Stationbreak, a PC roguelite from indie developer Broken Spaceship. In Stationbreak, players lead a fleet fleeing the Swarm, an energy-consuming entity, building temporary space stations in each star system to produce fuel for the next jump. The Swarm cannot be fought; players manage resources and decide when to escape. The announcement positions Slug Disco as a publisher of roguelite titles from external developers, alongside its own development work on Pathogenic.

Slug Disco and Aberrant Labs announced that their 2D roguelike twin-stick shooter Pathogenic will launch on Steam on July 16. The game casts players as a pathogen invading the human body, fighting immune cells and rival parasites across procedurally generated stages themed after organs such as the intestines, heart, and liver. Players collect over 120 types of organelles and combine them to customize their pathogen's combat style, from long-range attacks to close-range sweeps and electric strikes. A demo is available now, letting players choose from three pathogen types-bacteria, parasite, and spore-and play through the first four stages: skin, intestines, stomach, and liver. The demo has been played by over 100,000 people. An upcoming update for Steam Next Fest will add a fourth pathogen, Amoeba, which evolves as the player progresses, changing its shape and structure. The full release includes all planned content.
