Voidling Bound Confirmed for June 9 on Steam
Canadian indie studio Hatchery Games has announced that Voidling Bound will launch on Steam on June 9. The reveal was made during The Mix Indie Fan Fest, alongside a new release date trailer showcasing fresh gameplay footage.
Console versions for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2 are planned for a later date, though specific timelines have yet to be confirmed.
Evolving Creatures With Near-Limitless Builds
Formed by former Skylanders developers, Hatchery Games aims to revitalise the creature evolution genre with Voidling Bound. Players guide alien lifeforms known as Voidlings through branching evolutionary paths that reshape both their abilities and physical forms.
Often described as blending the creative mutation of Spore with the kinetic combat energy of Warframe, the game allows players to collect mutant genes and craft customised Voidlings with specialised builds. The system encourages experimentation, with powerful synergies emerging from carefully curated evolutionary combinations.
The newly released trailer teases several boss encounters and provides a first look at breeding and training systems that deepen player control over their Voidling companions.
Updated Demo Adds Carryover Progress and New Content
An updated demo is now available on Steam and is officially participating in Steam Next Fest from February 23 to March 2. Unlike many event-limited demos, this version will remain accessible after the festival concludes.
The demo introduces several improvements and additions, including:
- Demo progress that carries over into the full game
- A new animated narrative introduction
- Full support for nine languages
- Access to Gilick’s Cryo Branch evolution path
- A brand-new enemy faction
- Expanded maps beyond the main quest line
- Performance optimisations and improved visual and audio effects
These updates offer a more representative slice of the final experience while allowing early adopters to begin building their Voidlings ahead of launch.
Voidling Bound launches June 9 on PC via Steam, with console releases for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2 to follow. With its hybrid of creature evolution, third-person combat and build-driven experimentation, Voidling Bound looks to be as one of 2026’s more distinctive indie RPG releases.
