Nodusfall Release Date: What We Know So Far (August 2026)
✦ Last updated August 29, 2026
Nodusfall has no official release date yet. HoYoverse lists it as TBA following the Gamescom 2026 reveal.
What's confirmed
- Development has run more than 4 years (TechNode, citing HoYoverse).
- A closed beta already happened — around July 2026, distributed quietly via TapTap before the official reveal. Footage leaked in mid-August.
- The official site's pre-registration and questionnaire are live — the questionnaire is currently the visible entry point for future test access.
Community estimates (not official)
| Source | Estimate |
|---|---|
| Closed-beta players (conservative) | Fastest case: 2028; test streams in 2027 |
| Optimistic analyses | Open beta within a year; launch before 3 more years pass |
| Leak coverage (TapTap) | First public release possibly around 2027 |
The general consensus: a 2027 launch window, with the first public test announcement being the milestone that firms up the timeline.
Timeline so far
- 2025-11-07 — Project first surfaces on miHoYo's recruiting site (UE5, raid bosses, co-op).
- 2026-04 — "NODUSFALL" trademark filed (Cognosphere).
- 2026-05 — "源初之结" trademark filed in China.
- 2026-07 — Silent closed beta via TapTap.
- 2026-08-14 — Beta footage leaks; Insider Gaming reports.
- 2026-08-25 — Official world reveal at Gamescom 2026 ONL.
Next milestones to watch
- First public test announcement — the biggest signal; expect the site's questionnaire to become the signup channel.
- Platform announcement — console plans could shift everything.
- TGA 2026 (December) — HoYoverse has no fixed TGA habit, but a Western-facing title makes a new trailer plausible.
