Gladio Mori Release Date — Best Moveset

Gladio Mori released in version 1.0 on September 16, 2026 for PC via Steam, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. That is the full release date, not the first time the game was playable: Early Access on PC began on November 26, 2024, and a demo has been running on and off since the game's first public build. The date was locked in by the developer and publisher after a Q3 2026 window was announced in December 2025.

The short answer

September 16, 2026 is the date that matters for the finished game. The publisher announced the Q3 2026 window on December 2, 2025, noting that more content would be added before release, that a demo would return to Steam, and that the game would be ported to Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5. Gematsu reported the exit from Early Access and the simultaneous PS5, Xbox Series and PC launch, and it also confirmed that a demo was available on all platforms at that point.

From Early Access to 1.0

The gap between the two dates is close to two years, and it explains a lot of the confusion around the launch. A store listing that separates the milestones notes that someone who played the earlier PC build was playing before the full-release milestone, and that the two dates describe different stages rather than a contradictory history.

What filled that gap was content and ports. The December 2025 announcement is explicit that more content would be added before 1.0 and that the console versions were still coming, and the demo that returned in April 2026 carried the Castle arena, new character materials and a low or high poly character option. By the time version 1.0 arrived, the game had a crossplay pool spanning all three platforms.

Release week and post-launch patches

The studio moved quickly after launch, which is useful for anyone dating a build they are playing. Version 1.0.2.1 arrived on September 17, 2026 and dealt with achievements and the Pollaxe, including a fix for the pollaxe blade popping out of whatever it was cutting. Version 1.0.3.2 followed on September 24 with multiplayer and lobby changes, and version 1.0.3.4 landed on October 1 with a Pugilist moveset adjustment.

The hotfix numbering is the fastest way to tell which build a bug report refers to, and the release notes are published in the Steam news feed as well as in the developer's Discord. Pricing is a separate question from release timing, and the Steam storefront listed $15.99 with a 30 percent discount to $11.19 when checked on October 5, 2026, a discount that can change at any time.
