Slay the Spire 2 early access launches March 5

Slay the Spire 2's release is almost here after a delay from late 2025. The game enters early access on March 5, featuring new and returning playable characters, a whole mess of cards, and a major new feature: four-player co-op.

It uses a global unlock on Steam and, coincidentally, launches at the exact same time as Bungie's Marathon.

The global release time is 10 am Pacific on Thursday, March 5. That corresponds to Los Angeles: 10 am; New York: 1 pm; London: 6 pm; Paris: 7 pm; Seoul: 2 am (March 6); Sydney: 3 am (March 6).

The team revealed the release time in a Reddit AMA, and the timing is also confirmed on the game's Steam page.
