Gunstoppable Launch Notes
Release dates, pricing, achievements, and wiki language coverage
Gunstoppable launched on Steam August 5, 2026, bringing CAGE Studios’ momentum roguelite FPS out of a long public demo cycle. Fenix returns as a gladiator-turned-viral killer in a fully voiced campaign: underwater prisons, cyberpunk cityscapes, and billionaire bosses stand between you and revenge for a war that stole your family. Gameplay remains pure speed fantasy—grapple, slide, wall-run, rail-grind, dual-wield ten weapons, shop with Kane the Rat, and manually trigger Reaper Mode after kill chains.
Watch the Official PC Launch Trailer above for tone and combat pacing. This page documents the launch window as a player would encounter it: platforms, price, achievements, languages, review context, and how this wiki fits alongside official support. Gameplay depth lives in Getting Started, Controls, and Movement and Momentum.

Steam achievements (21 at launch)
The Steam store page lists 21 achievements for the full game. Three names are confirmed at launch—Over Achiever (100k views in a single run), Robot Demon (10k kills), and Challenge Accepted—with full hunting notes on Achievements. Remaining titles may stay hidden until unlock; we group goals by skill type rather than invent strings.
Typical buckets include campaign progression, boss milestones, movement and speed habits, combat variety (parry, Reaper, dual-wield), and meta completion. Demo and full game maintain separate achievement sets—purchase app ID 3724710 for campaign trophies.
Pair achievement hunting with Accessibility if you use save anytime or playable without timed input for long sessions.
What launches in the full game vs demo
The demo showcased a slice of movement, dual-wield chaos, and Reaper Mode. Full release adds:
- Four-act fully voiced campaign through capitalist nightmare biomes beyond the demo slice.
- Complete story routing with improved SFX pass at 1.0.
- New settings at launch: custom resolution, windowed mode, VSync, screen shake toggles — Accessibility.
- Full weapon and augment pool (ten distinct weapons, ~14 attachments, ~24 augments).
- Persistent permanent upgrades between deaths.
- Boss roster including Fluffy the Giant Robot Crab, Johnny Jetpack, and the broader billionaire set — see Bosses.
- 21 Steam achievements and full-game leaderboards separate from demo boards.
- Steam Deck support confirmed August 4, 2026 (not yet Verified) — Steam Deck.
Demo status: Patch 26 was the final demo update; the public demo was taken down when the full game went AVAILABLE NOW on August 5, 2026.
Launch hotfix (same day): Performance optimizations, low graphics bright white fix, VSync save persistence, and 0-health door stuck fix — details on Patch Notes.
Demo players should expect control changes carried forward: Reaper Mode is manual (Q/B), parry impact frames were reworked, and movement is snappier than earliest demos. Patch 25 added a speedometer HUD and reset demo leaderboards when underwater prison replaced older routing—see Leaderboards and Patch Notes.

Review and community context
Early Steam user reviews at launch sat overwhelmingly positive with a small but growing sample typical for niche indies. Reviewers highlight momentum skill ceiling, absurd weapon synergies, and Reaper Mode spectacle—consistent with pre-launch preview coverage and the launch trailer tone. Difficulty spikes usually trace to movement discipline, not hidden stats; readers comparing scores should see Game Review for fuller launch reception notes.
Negative feedback clusters around accessibility of parry timing after Patch 24 and leaderboard resets confusing demo veterans—both addressed in Patch Notes and Accessibility.
Post-launch update expectations
CAGE Studios shipped frequent demo patches (24, 25 around Steam Next Fest). Expect similar responsiveness early live service:
- Movement feel tweaks and wall speed storage refinements
- Weapon balance (banana gun, katana, knife already touched pre-launch)
- UX polish (upgrade menu, markers for last enemies, dialogue volume split)
Track live entries on Patch Notes. When a patch lands, re-check Tier List and Starter Builds pages for alignment.
