Dead Weight will launch for PC via Steam on July 16, 2026. Developer Klukva Games and publisher Spaghetti Cat confirmed the date alongside a new trailer, with the tactical roguelite priced at $12.99.
The game sends players across a procedurally generated steampunk world aboard a flying pirate ship.
Each expedition involves visiting floating islands, recruiting companions, collecting equipment, and facing Ancient Gods through turn-based tactical battles on compact maps.
Players can develop four distinct characters through individual skill trees and equipment combinations. Random events, hidden locations, fatigue, and madness add further complications during exploration, while late-game crises can reshape the final stages of a run.
Klukva Games cites Into the Breach and Final Fantasy Tactics among the main inspirations behind its combat system. A playable demo is currently available through the game’s Steam page.
