Lunarium on Epic Games Store
Same-day PC release alongside Steam — price, features, and store-specific tips.
Imperfect Games confirmed that Lunarium launches on the Epic Games Store the same day as Steam — July 29, 2026 — at $17.99 USD with identical content. You receive the full single-player campaign, both story endings, Embroidery and Cloak progression, and post-launch patches regardless of which PC storefront you choose. This guide covers Epic-specific purchase steps, feature parity with Steam, and practical advice for players who prefer Epic’s library over Valve’s ecosystem.
Lunarium is a hand-drawn isometric action RPG from Lunarium Game Studio (Shanghai, nine-person team), published by Imperfect Games. The July 13, 2026 release date trailer premiered through IGN and partner outlets, explicitly naming both Steam and Epic as launch platforms.
Epic Games Store purchase steps
- Open the Epic Games Store and search Lunarium on launch day
- Confirm the price displays $17.99 USD (or local equivalent) — no deluxe SKU is announced
- Purchase or claim if a launch promotion appears — verify official Epic pages only
- Install through the Epic Games Launcher; allow 5 GB storage per system requirements
- Select UI language at first boot: English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, or Traditional Chinese
Epic does not use Steam App IDs. Cross-reference our release date page for the authoritative Steam link (App ID 2939790) if you need both store pages bookmarked.

Save data does not transfer between Steam and Epic. Pick one storefront for your playthrough. Friends lists, reviews, and community hubs are store-specific — Steam Community discussions (App ID 2939790) are the most active pre-launch fan space.
Why choose Epic?
Reasonable reasons to buy on Epic Games Store:
- Existing library — you already use Epic as your primary PC launcher
- Coupons or sales — Epic occasionally offers store-wide discounts that stack with base pricing
- Epic Cloud Saves — convenient if you play across two PCs on the same Epic account
- No Steam install — lightweight launcher preference on low-storage drives
Reasons to choose Steam instead:
- Steam Community — active discussions, guides, and screenshot sharing at App ID 2939790
- Steam demo history — the public demo (3525540) lived on Steam; no Epic demo confirmed
- Steam Deck — if Valve verifies Lunarium later, Steam is the natural path (verification unconfirmed at launch)
- Wishlist notifications — long-time wishlisters already queued on Steam
Neither choice affects in-game content. Lunarium has no cross-store DLC or exclusive cosmetics announced.
System requirements on Epic
Epic Games Store does not change hardware demands. Minimum specs remain:
- OS: Windows 10
- CPU: Intel i5 quad-core @ 2.7 GHz
- RAM: 8 GB
- GPU: GTX 1050 Ti or R9 285
- Storage: 5 GB
Full breakdown on our system requirements page. Run the game once at default settings before tweaking — note frame rate in the Forgotten Forest opening.
Offline and single-player
Lunarium is single-player with no always-online requirement after initial authentication. Epic offline mode works the same as Steam offline mode — authenticate once online, then play offline if your Epic account allows it. No multiplayer, no live service, no season pass.
Post-launch patches
Patches publish independently per storefront. Lunarium Game Studio typically ships the same build to Steam and Epic simultaneously, but verify your Epic library shows an update if combat feel changes post-launch. We log confirmed changelogs on Patch notes with store-agnostic summaries.
