Servant of the Lake Release Date: August 2026

Official date confirmation

Rusty Lake published a release announcement on June 6, 2026 stating that Servant of the Lake launches on August 13, 2026. The official release date trailer repeats the same date, and the Steam product page lists August 13, 2026 as its planned release. These independent first party confirmations make the calendar date clear.

The official website also displays August 13 and links players toward Steam, mobile access, and the preview versions. The App Store premium listing was live in the collected research on August 13, while the captured Steam page still showed a short countdown. Exact hour, regional rollout order, and whether every store unlocks simultaneously are To be confirmed.

Platforms named by Rusty Lake

Rusty Lake's announcement directs players to preorder on mobile, wishlist on Steam, and follow the game on itch.io. The official trailer description includes App Store, Google Play, Steam, and itch.io links. The Steam page lists Windows and macOS, while the mobile listings cover iPhone, iPad, and Android.

The collected evidence does not name a console release for this launch. A future Switch, PlayStation, or Xbox edition is therefore To be confirmed. Do not infer a console date from the shared August 13 date without a platform announcement from Rusty Lake.

The premium release is a single player point and click adventure. Steam lists achievements, Steam Cloud, Family Sharing, and 23 supported languages. Mobile store features and achievements can differ, so exact feature parity is To be confirmed.

Steam status on release day

The collected Steam page identifies Rusty Lake as developer and publisher and gives the date as August 13, 2026. At the moment captured in the research, it still said the game was not yet available and estimated a short time until unlock. That snapshot should not be treated as a permanent delay because it was taken on the announced date.

Players should open the live Steam page to see whether the purchase button has appeared in their region. Store refreshes, account regions, and local time displays can make release day status look different for several hours. No specific universal unlock hour was confirmed in the collected sources.

The free Steam Demo remains a separate app with its own October 13, 2025 release date. It is not the complete premium game and should not be mistaken for an early launch. The Demo's official expected play time is 15 to 30 minutes.

iOS release information

The collected United States App Store page for the premium app showed Servant of the Lake by Rusty Lake, support for iPhone and iPad, and a listed price of $4.99. It required iOS 15.0 or later, listed a 13+ age rating, and showed English plus 20 more languages. Price, chart rank, app size, and availability can change by country or update.

That listing also displayed a recent version and bug fix note, indicating that the premium iOS app was active in the captured storefront. The exact time it became downloadable in every App Store region is To be confirmed. Players should use the official listing with app id 6748751735 rather than a similarly named upload.

Servant of the Lake Lite is a separate free iOS preview with app id 6762027410. Installing Lite does not prove that the premium app has been purchased. Whether Lite progress transfers into the full app is To be confirmed because the collected store text does not promise it.

Android release information

Rusty Lake's announcement and official trailer link directly to Google Play for both the premium game and the free Lite preview. The documented target date for the premium Android edition is August 13, 2026. Exact device compatibility, live price, app size, and region availability should be confirmed in the current Google Play listing.

The mobile research also records Rusty Lake promoting Lite on both iOS and Android before the premium launch. That preview covers the first household duties and is not the complete paid experience. A third party APK listing is not evidence of an earlier official release.

The official Android package link in the research uses Rusty Lake's Google Play listing for Servant of the Lake. Install status can vary by device certification and region. Any requirement not shown on the live official page is To be confirmed.

What released before August 13

Rusty Lake released the Steam Demo on October 13, 2025. Its store description calls it a free taste of the upcoming premium game and gives 15 to 30 minutes as the expected length. The Demo begins with the servant arriving at the Vanderboom estate and helping Aldous prepare for visitors.

Rusty Lake later made the preview available on mobile as Servant of the Lake Lite. The collected App Store page describes the same 15 to 30 minute first assignment experience. Official social and video posts promoted Lite on iOS and Android in April and May 2026.

The itch.io page also offered Windows and Mac Demo downloads. Its collected text still described the full premium experience as scheduled for August 2026. These preview releases explain why gameplay videos existed months before the premium release date.

What the premium game contains

Official descriptions place the game in the Vanderboom house during the era of Aldous and William Vanderboom. The player works as a servant, cares for the household and visitors, and helps the family pursue alchemical ambitions. The story takes place decades before Rusty Lake: Roots.

The listed activities range from straightening family portraits and doing laundry to assisting with complex experiments and cleaning the aftermath. Rusty Lake calls it a premium single player point and click adventure with a dark narrative. Victor Butzelaar composed and performed the soundtrack named in the official store descriptions.

The final chapter count, exact ending count, and verified completion time are not established by the release date file. Those values are To be confirmed rather than copied from an unsupported estimate. Release timing does not by itself verify a walkthrough claim.

How to check availability safely

Begin at the official Servant of the Lake website or Rusty Lake announcement, then follow its Steam, App Store, Google Play, or itch.io link. Check that Rusty Lake is named as the developer or publisher before buying or installing. The premium game and free preview have different listings, so read the full product title.

On Steam, app 3636770 is the premium game and app 3996940 is the Demo. On iOS, app id 6748751735 is the premium game and id 6762027410 is Lite. Those identifiers help avoid search results that lead to unrelated downloads.

If a store still shows preorder or wishlist status on August 13, wait for the live listing to update rather than downloading an unverified copy. The official date remains August 13, but exact local unlock time is To be confirmed. Rusty Lake's own channels are the best source for any delay notice.

Timeline of verified milestones

The Steam Demo page records October 13, 2025 as its release date. Rusty Lake published the premium release date announcement on June 6, 2026 and released an official trailer stating August 13, 2026. The official site and stores then carried links for wishlist, preorder, Demo, and Lite access.

August 13, 2026 is the premium launch date confirmed across those sources. The captured iOS page and Steam countdown reflect different moments in a rollout rather than conflicting calendar dates. Any post launch patch schedule is To be confirmed.
