Can I play the sequel on Android, iOS or in a browser?

No, mobile versions are planned for 2027, and the announced Early Access launch is Steam only. Existing Melvor Idle mobile apps belong to the original game. A web version of the sequel is also planned. Melvor Cloud will let you use the same save on mobile when that version launches.

Can I play multiplayer or co-op with friends?

No—the Steam game is listed as single-player, so you play solo. There is no supported co-op party size to arrange. Its advertised social features include a Friends List, optional Cloud Profiles and Presence, which shows other players training the same activity. Privacy options are included, but these social features do not provide shared adventures.

Is the game free, and where do I check the price?

When does Early Access launch, and when is the roadmap coming?

Steam Early Access is scheduled for November 17, 2026, at approximately 10:00 UTC. This is the Early Access launch, not the completed version 1.0 release. The developer expects to publish a roadmap about a week after launch, outlining major content and features still to come, with rough timing for future additions.

How do I check whether my computer can run it?
