Ex Sanguis Gets New Early Access Date

Developer Lightbulb Crew and publisher Firesquid have announced a new Steam Early Access release date for strategy roguelite Ex Sanguis. The game will now release into Early Access on September 10, 2026, and is expected to take at least six months before receiving a full release. To go with the announcement, the developer has temporarily re-released a demo for the game, available through Steam.

Ex Sanguis is set in a dying world drained by the Purge and the forces of Stasis, featuring a greyscale and red visual style similar to the studio’s previous title Othercide. Players control a group of elite warriors known as Stillae, attempting to restore the flow of life. During each run, players can choose to take on high-risk missions for greater rewards, leap straight into boss fights, or spend time gathering resources. As they progress through procedural levels, players obtain random skill drops and earn overall progress even if they fall.
