Hypnos
The full release for Hypnos has been set, and we can start wandering the maze with Hypnos in just a week
It's been a bit surreal, and things have been a little flowy until now for Hypnos, but we're finally getting to the point where we can expect the full version of the game to launch out there. At least on the PC, as Redlock Studio is ready to give us the full 1.0 version of the game to enjoy after a long run in the Early Access stage. As long as you can wait until October 29th, when the full launch for Hypnos finally hits the PC. The PS5 and Xbox Series X|S versions should come later in 2026, but that feels like a different dream for us to wait to wake up from, for now. Given all of that, let's see what has changed and what will be out there once the full launch of the game hits us.
It has been a solid 5 months of Early Access for Hypnos, and it looks as if the team has learned and added a whole lot to the final build of the game. Like the fact that we are going to have 4 different endings that come along with the narrative we will be playing out over the 7 chapters. Many more characters to meet and places to explore in the world, along with many other things that will be hidden in the dreamy mazes to keep us on our toes. Especially as we head through the various dialogue branches that Hypnos will offer up to keep us fully immersed in the world and setting. It does make me eager to see when all of the platforms will have the chance to experience it, but that's a worry for a different time. We PC gamers only have a week to wait as of now, and you can see just what will be there next week in the following video that we have to help announce this new release.
Hypnos — Release Date
Hypnos is a surreal narrative exploration game, set in Redlock Studio’s Maze Chronicles universe, following their previous title Blackshard. Keeping the same atmospheric focus for the series, Hypnos also weaves branching narratives into the formula. The soundtrack for the game is the creation of ALT236, a French multimedia artist and composer, in a blend of ambient, retro, and dreamlike electronic music.
After 5 months in Early Access and very positive player feedback, Hypnos is getting its full 1.0 launch on 29th October. Exploring the Nameless City in search of the mysterious boy haunting your dreams, you’ll meet a peculiar cast of dreamers, spirits, and otherworldly creatures.
Hypnos 1.0 includes 4 alternate endings based on your actions (or lack thereof), all 7 chapters, more areas to explore and characters to meet, and many more surprises! Hypnos is also wandering onto PS5 and Xbox Series X|S later in 2026.
Features:
- Exploration: wander a unique semi-open world. Find your own way through the Nameless City.
- Branched Dialogues, Choices & Alternative Endings: Meet the strange inhabitants of the Far Reaches. Your actions influence their destinies.
- A Layered World: Interact with your environment. Transform the materia of dreams and the City with it. Lift the veils that conceal reality.
Were you part of the Early Access for Hypnos over the last few months? Will you have to wait longer to see the game on the consoles for your chosen platforms?

What other surprises do you think that the team has hidden in the world of this video game? Let's hear it all out in the comments further down the page here. There's going to be more for Hypnos, obviously, as we still have more releases to go, and we'll have that all on the site for you when it comes. You'll just need to keep an eye out here and follow along on all of our socials out there to see when it is all ready for you to enjoy. That will be the best way to experience all that we have out there.
