The First Descendant has had a successful period in the popular early access stage of development. Players have been able to sample a large chunk of the fascinating looter shooter, but the time for testing’s over. We already know the answers to big questions such as what is the title’s max level, how to change character, and if it’s pay to win, but one thought is on the mind and it concerns The First Descendant‘s full release.

A Summer Game Fest 2024 tease confirmed a July 2, 2024 release date for The First Descendant as it releases on a variety of different platforms. Along with a new trailer to show the final product, the upcoming shooter’s X (formerly Twitter) social page shared the trailer and confirmation of the final release date.

For a more detailed look at when this is, here’s a live countdown.

This is as far as our knowledge goes though as the developer has neglected to reveal if The First Descendent has specific releases per region. For now, we’ll presume that it’s set for a universal midnight launch across all formats.

The First Descendant will be available on PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox Series X and S, Xbox One, and PC—so no one should feel left out, even those on last-gen consoles.

We’ve also answered a bunch of other burning questions about The First Descendant to ensure you’re up-to-date: If it’s going to have crossplay, and how to get one of the most useful materials in the TPS—Amorphous Material.
