Bellum is scheduled to enter Early Access in Fall 2026, but the official store has not announced an exact date. It lists four preorder tiers—Standard, Deluxe, Supporter and Fireteam—with different prices, testing access and extras. Prices and availability can change, so check the official Bellum store before buying.
When is Bellum coming to Early Access?
The official Bellum store advertises an Early Access launch in Fall 2026. It does not give a specific calendar day, so there is no confirmed exact release date to report. The store’s release window and offers are dynamic and may change.
What does each Bellum preorder edition include?
The store displays the following US-dollar prices. Its listed Early Access prices are the prices shown for the editions after the preorder offer; the store says all editions include a 20% preorder discount.
| Edition | Displayed preorder price | Displayed Early Access price | Access and listed extras |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $35.99 | $44.99 | Standard game key, Early Access launch access and reduced-price preorder bonus. No closed alpha or beta access is listed. |
| Deluxe | $47.99 | $59.99 | Closed weekly beta access and Early Access launch; digital art book and soundtrack; Deluxe cosmetics; name in credits. |
| Supporter | $95.99 | $119.99 | Closed alpha and closed weekly beta access, followed by Early Access launch; digital art book and soundtrack; Supporter and Deluxe cosmetics; server queue priority. Preorder bonuses include a Discord tag, objective-name submission, a name on a training-map wall and a credits name. |
| Fireteam | $119.99 for four keys ($29.99 per key) | $149.99 | Four Standard Edition keys, presented as a volume-discount tier. The store listing does not specify separate closed testing access or extra digital items. |
The displayed prices are the official store’s US-dollar figures at the time of reporting, not a guarantee of future pricing or of the price in every region. The store says the game is sold worldwide subject to regional pricing restrictions, and some editions or perks may be limited in quantity. Review the current listing and checkout total for your location.
Which tier fits which player?
- Standard: For someone who wants the game at Early Access launch and does not need the earlier testing access or extras listed for higher tiers.
- Deluxe: For players who value closed weekly beta access, the art book, soundtrack, cosmetics and credits listing.
- Supporter: For players seeking the earliest advertised access—closed alpha, then weekly beta—as well as its additional cosmetics and preorder perks.
- Fireteam: For a group that needs four Standard keys; the listed preorder price works out to $29.99 per key.
Can you play a Bellum beta if you preorder?
It depends on the edition. The store lists closed weekly beta access for Deluxe and Supporter, and closed alpha plus closed weekly beta access for Supporter. Standard is listed for access at Early Access launch, not closed testing. Access may be released in waves at the developer’s discretion, so a qualifying edition does not necessarily mean immediate access as soon as it is purchased.
Bellum’s Terms of Service describe closed-alpha, closed-beta and open-beta stages before full release. To play, the terms require an Astarte account, key redemption and login through the official launcher. The preorder confirmation page says the key and other important details will be emailed later to the address used at checkout.

Can you get a refund if you preorder Bellum?
Bellum’s Terms of Service describe these refund windows:

- Within 96 hours after that access stage unlocks: a full refund for any reason.
- For an open-beta purchase, including a preorder carried forward: a 96-hour window from purchase.
These are the terms as published on the official page, which says it was last updated June 13, 2025. Terms can change; read the current version and checkout conditions before placing an order.

What to know before buying
Online-only play
The Terms of Service characterize Bellum as multiplayer-only and requiring a continuous internet connection to Astarte servers. They do not guarantee server uptime and say the developer may modify or discontinue servers. That is worth considering before paying for access to a game that depends on online services.

On the official preorder confirmation page, Creative Director Ryan “Karmakut” Yuan said: “Every pre-order directly fuels our team. It gives us the resources to build without compromise and brings us closer to delivering the tactical shooter we’ve always wanted to play.” The same page says the studio is working independently without a publisher. This is the studio’s stated reason for seeking preorder support, rather than independently audited information about how funds are used.
