Casualties: Unknown<\/strong> is out now. The full game launched on Steam on its Casualties: Unknown release date<\/strong>, Monday 9 November 2026<\/strong>, after almost three years of work by solo developer Orsoniks, with publisher Oro Interactive.

Casualties: Unknown is an unforgiving cave-exploration survival sim with a simulated heart and limb system: you bandage wounds, fight infections and stop bleeding before you pass out, all while descending through the layers of an alien planet.<\/p>\n

Is Casualties: Unknown out now?<\/h2>\n

Yes. It launched on Steam on 9 November 2026<\/strong>, the date Orsoniks announced on 15 October. In his “out now” post<\/a>, Orsoniks says the full game has twice as many layers as the demo, 40 achievements, several characters and endings, and “a ton” of quality-of-life changes and bug fixes. Bugs can be reported on the game’s Discord.<\/p>\n

How much is Casualties: Unknown?<\/h2>\n

\u00a318.99 \/ $22.99 \/ \u20ac21.99<\/strong>, or \u00a316.14 \/ $19.54 \/ \u20ac18.69<\/strong> with the 15% launch discount, which ends on 23 November. The soundtrack (over three hours and more than 50 tracks) is sold on its own or bundled with the game, and there are also bundles with Rain World, Palworld, Barotrauma and Abiotic Factor.<\/p>\n

What’s in the full game?<\/h2>\n

The full release adds layers 6 to 11<\/strong>, three separate endings, three playable characters, 40 achievements, and what the developer calls “a truckload” of balance changes, bug fixes and quality-of-life additions. There are 10 main layers plus a shorter 11th layer and an optional bonus ending sequence.<\/p>\n

You start as the experiment and unlock the two other species by finishing a run with the previous character. Each has its own stats, quirks and playstyle.<\/p>\n
