Armageddon Chronicle

22 October 2024 is Early Access on Steam and Epic: eight-player co-op with permadeath, 1.0 still ahead. 10 December 2024 is Infection 0.2.1 on PC: Stage 1, Phalanx, gene therapy, self-sacrifice, private servers. 3 February 2026 is Genesis 0.8.0: melee refresh, Molotov, Responder customization. 7 April 2026 is Revelation 0.9 on the documented road to 1.0. 11 August 2026 is Armageddon on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox. 13 August 2026 is the hotfix plan: Oceanic servers, loadout restores, Steam Machine Verified, two hotfix windows.

Those six dates are the sealed time-series. Older marketing posts exist on the official WordPress index and were skipped as duplicates of store identity. This page does not add them as extra nodes.

The original Source game is Steam app 224260 and is not this product. This chronicle only dates the sequel. If a store still shows Early Access after 11 August 2026, it is stale against the Armageddon node and the hotfix plan.

Open one node. The default open node is Armageddon 1.0, the current product. Historical nodes keep their official summaries: Early Access still says 1.0 is ahead, Infection lists the medical loop, Genesis lists Molotov, Revelation is the 0.9 step, the hotfix lists Oceanic servers and loadout restores. Closing a node hides its summary. The board never leaves two summaries open.

If you are reading a melee number or a Survival rule, check that it sits on the Armageddon node or on a row explicitly marked as still current. Infection 0.2.1 medical rules are called out as still current on the NPV page. Genesis Molotov is still listed in Steam about text. Those cross-version facts are labeled. Everything else on live tables is 1.0.

Use the open summary as the official sentence for that date. Do not copy an Infection 0.2.1 private-server note into a current 1.0 platform table without the date. The medical loop is the one cross-version fact the NPV page still marks as current.

The official 1.0 Launch Trailer is bound to this route and to the hub. Here the poster is the official YouTube thumbnail. On the hub the poster is the Steam header. Both faces are first-party. The trailer is the 11 August announcement, not the Early Access launch film.

Use it as the visual stamp for the Armageddon node after you have opened that date on the timeline. The overview film for Survival and Raven Rock lives on the mode page so this chronicle does not mount two players on one screen.

The thumbnail on this page is the official YouTube still for NVdmkQXurtA. It is not the Steam header, which already appears as the chronicle lead figure. Two different first-party faces, one video id, one click-to-load player.
