BioEden Pre-order and Platforms

BioEden is scheduled for 3 September 2026 on four platforms at once: Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and Nintendo Switch 2. The price Focus and storefronts have printed is $21.99 / £17.99 / €21.99. Steam still shows a pre-purchase promotion at 9% off until that morning. PlayStation and Xbox listings take wishlists and pre-orders. Nintendo’s eShop copy is tied to the Switch 2 launch day. This page is the storefront split. The launch checklist is the morning-of briefing. The demo news page is why your tutorial save will not come with you.

Early June copy said PC first and consoles later. That line is stale. Broken Arms Games confirmed consoles share the PC date. If a June FAQ tab is still open in your browser, close it and use this page plus Links.

Steam, PlayStation, Xbox, Switch 2

Steam. The PC SKU is the one with the playable tutorial attached as a separate demo app. Pre-purchase at the promotional 9% is a Steam window that ends 3 September 2026. DualSense support, full controller support, Steam Cloud, achievements, and Family Sharing are listed on that store page. SSD is required in the spec table; system requirements copies the rows. The demo app does not carry saves into the paid game. You can skip the tutorial after purchase.

PlayStation 5. The concept page and product listing take wishlists and pre-orders. Mild Fantasy Violence is the rating language PlayStation has shown. One player. The Xbox and PlayStation trailers are the same reveal cut with platform sting; the Xbox upload is the video in the middle of this article so living-room Keepers can see the tone before they pre-order.

Xbox Series. The Microsoft Store listing is the Series SKU. Pre-order there if that is your couch. This unofficial wiki will not invent a Game Pass date. If Game Pass status changes, the Xbox page wins.

Nintendo Switch 2. Focus included Switch 2 in the day-one set. Nintendo Everything and Gematsu printed 3 September 2026 for that SKU. Pre-order language on Switch has been thinner than Steam and Xbox; treat the eShop as the live source on the morning itself.

Prices move. Regional taxes move. A 10% Steam bonus mentioned at reveal is not the 9% window the store showed later. Trust the cart, not a June press kit.

What you are buying, and what you are not

You are buying a single-player cozy solarpunk management campaign of 15–20 hours, no fail states, recycle that returns materials, five guilds, Charles as the tutorial robot, and human-made art with a studio no-AI policy. You are not buying a live-service pass, a second-player campaign, or a save from the Steam tutorial. Guild choice happens in the full game. The demo’s training path is a wrapper. Pick Euler, Orin, Darwin, Xylar, or Umbra on the guild picker after you know your habit.

If you only wanted a trailer before money leaves the account, the Xbox reveal in the middle of this page is enough. If you wanted mechanics, stop here and open Getting Started or the review. If you wanted booth context from late August, open Gamescom 2026.

Pre-order does not skip the two rooms. You will still bounce between hexes and the dome. You will still watch pollution. You will still match Landowl’s climate window if that is your first hatch. The storefront only decides which device plays the bounce.

A short pre-order checklist

1. Confirm the 3 September 2026 date on the storefront you actually use.
2. Confirm the price in your currency, including the Steam 9% if you are on PC.
3. Decide whether you still need the playable tutorial. If yes, install the demo app, not the pre-purchase, and keep them straight.
4. Read the SSD line if you are on PC.
5. Bookmark Discord and support from the Links Hub so a key problem is not a wiki problem.

This wiki is unofficial. Focus Entertainment publishes the game. Broken Arms Games developed it. When a storefront and a paragraph here disagree, the storefront wins. When 3 September 2026 passes, this page becomes a timestamp and Updates takes patch notes instead of carts.
