At a glance

A dated comparison of the current Steam and Epic release listings.

Read again on 2026-09-26, Steam says the game is not yet available commercially, shows December 2026, and presents it as coming soon to Early Access. It also offers a Beautiful Light Playtest access request, with notification when the developer is ready for more participants.

The Epic Games Store listing shows Early Access, Coming Soon, Available Dec 2026, and Windows. This is a cautious cross-store comparison at month level, not a claim that a public Early Access build can be accessed now.

Not yet available on Steam

Steam was read again on 2026-09-26. The commercial listing still displays December 2026 and coming-soon Early Access, alongside a separate option to request playtest access. A request does not establish selection, admission or a build tested by this site.

    Access can be requested; admission is not established by the button.

The second store listing

Epic shows Coming Soon, Early Access, Dec 2026, and Windows. The two listings agree on the month-level window, but store labels remain a pre-release status signal rather than proof of current build access.

No day and no guarantee

Neither listing supplies a release day in the material used for this page. December 2026 is therefore kept as a displayed month, and the pre-release state may change.

Sources behind this page

Every claim remains tied to a dated, identifiable source.

Evidence statement : On 2026-08-29, the Steam page said Beautiful Light was not yet available and displayed December 2026, while the Epic listing showed Coming Soon, Early Access, Dec 2026, and Windows; these store labels do not prove that an Early Access build is accessible now.

What remains unknown

Steam still lists the commercial release as unavailable and planned for December 2026. Its playtest request is a separate route to possible participation; requesting access does not establish admission or a build tested by this site.
