What happened to the demo and what changed at retail?

The pre-launch post (Nov 2, 2026) states the demo was disabled ahead of release.

Carries over to full game:

  • Tutorial completed in demo → skip tutorial in full game.
  • Trade Mode unlocked in demo → already available in full game.

Does not carry over:

  • Artifacts must be unlocked again—demo lacked final unlock conditions (Nov 2, 2026).

Highlighted demo → retail differences (Nov 2, 2026—not claimed as a complete changelog):

  1. Endless Mode is separate from Classic; it no longer starts automatically after finishing Classic.
  2. Modules can be built in any empty module slot—demo required a completed neighbor module first (adjacency rule removed).
  3. Artifact icons and names changed; some demo icons now belong to different artifacts.

Earlier demo updates (Sep 14, 2026) added Hull Construction, themed post-battle shop crates, turret moving (slow, with downtime), Cheat Code nerf, and more—see hull construction and best builds for system links. Tag demo content as historical when it conflicts with Nov 2 bullets.

Despot’s command room shows glowing consoles, an AI face, and two small crew figures at the sides.
