Answer: no
Is the Hull Rupture demo still available?
The demo is off. The 2 Nov 2026 announcement said it was disabled ahead of release, and the demo store record no longer returns a product page.
Two demo flags carry over: a finished tutorial, and an unlocked Trade mode. Artifacts must be unlocked again because the demo did not use the release rules.
What carried over
| Demo progress | Full game |
|---|---|
| Tutorial finished | You can skip the tutorial |
| Trade mode unlocked | Trade mode is available |
| Artifacts | Unlock them again |
How the demo differed
The last named demo build in the announcements is v0.10.12 on 25 Sep 2026. It added the Rat turret, which turns a hit target into a rat, and retuned shop weights.
Release rules called out in the same news thread: Endless is its own mode, modules can sit in any empty slot, and artifact names and icons changed. The older demo required a finished neighbor before a new slot opened.
The earlier playtest ended 15 May 2026. The studio reported more than 30,000 participants, an average session of 3 hours 38 minutes, and a median of 1 hour 36 minutes.

FAQ
Can I still download the demo?
Not from Steam. The 2 Nov 2026 post says the demo was disabled, and the demo app record does not resolve.
Does demo progress become a redeem code?
No. Carry-over is a pair of account flags, not a code you type in.
Where is the demo trailer?
The launch trailer on this site is the 4 Nov 2026 release film. The older demo film is still on the Steam store media row.
