🗓️ Ashes of the Singularity II Release Date, Unlock Time & Price

Ashes of the Singularity II releases on Steam for Windows PC on Tuesday, November 10, 2026. Stardock's official roadmap post sets the Standard Edition at $39.99 USD with a 20% launch discount, and the Deluxe Edition at $69.99 USD with the same 20% off — the Deluxe bundles the first three paid expansions. The official release-day livestream starts at 1:00 PM Eastern (EST) on YouTube, Twitch and Steam, and the Steam store page shows the exact unlock countdown to every player in the final 24 hours before launch.

Confirmed by official channels as of November 7, 2026: the release date (November 10, 2026) and the release-day livestream at 1:00 PM EST. Not yet published: the exact minute the Steam unlock flips. Stardock has not announced a specific unlock hour, so this page does not guess one — the definitive countdown appears on the Steam store page within the final 24 hours, and wishlisting the game is the reliable way to get the unlock notification the moment it happens. The table below converts the confirmed November 10 launch-day anchor into your timezone.

Pricing comes from Stardock's official roadmap announcement ("Standard at $39.99 (and 20% off that)… Deluxe at $69.99 with 20% off"). The discounted figures below are the arithmetic of that official 20% statement — treat the store page at checkout as the final word, and note that Steam regional pricing sets a different local amount per country.

• Expansion 1 — Incursions: named in the official roadmap; its content is deliberately under wraps ("can't go into this without spoiling the campaign").
• Expansion 2 — War at Sea: naval warfare; the developer has said he wants naval maps reminiscent of Total Annihilation.
• Expansion 3 — Nemesis: named in the official roadmap; details not yet announced.
• All three are included in the Deluxe Edition; each is also expected to be sold separately, as the roadmap calls them "pretty meaty" standalone releases.

• Wishlist on Steam now — the unlock notification arrives the moment your region's unlock flips, with any launch discount already applied.
• Prep the install: 50 GB of space, SSD strongly recommended per the official notes — the system requirements page has the full spec table.
• No Stardock account needed: the developer confirmed the account is optional; Steam purchase and play work without one.
• Refund safety net: the standard Steam window (14 days, under 2 hours played) applies on day one if performance disappoints.
• Join the launch livestream at 1:00 PM EST on YouTube, Twitch or Steam to see the team play the campaign and multiplayer live.
