Is Mistfall Hunter Free? Price and Editions

The price, in one line

Mistfall Hunter is a paid buy-to-play game. On Steam it sells for $24.99 USD for the Standard Edition, and the store listing declares in-app purchases. There is also a Deluxe Edition at $39.99 USD and a $15.00 upgrade path from Standard to Deluxe, all three figures published by the developers in the Official Launch FAQ.

Those are the prices. Everything below separates the paid core from the parts of Mistfall Hunter that are genuinely free — because the “is it free” question almost always comes down to a confusion between the price of the game and the free battle pass.

Is it free?

No. Mistfall Hunter is not free to play. The homepage answers this directly: it is a paid game at $24.99 USD on Steam, and the store listing also declares in-app purchases. There is no free tier and no trial that the record supports.

The confusion comes from the battle pass. Season 1’s battle pass is completely free — but a free battle pass inside a paid game is not the same as a free game. The core game costs $24.99; what is free is the seasonal progression track, not the title itself.

Standard vs Deluxe

The developers’ Official Launch FAQ, recorded on the patch-notes page, lists the two editions and the path between them:

Edition	Price
Standard Edition	$24.99 USD
Deluxe Edition	$39.99 USD
Standard → Deluxe upgrade	$15.00 USD

What the Deluxe edition contains is thin in the record. The one confirmed inclusion is a bulk of Fate Coins — the currency used strictly for purchasing in-game cosmetics, noted on the glossary page. Beyond that, the record does not itemise the Deluxe bundle, and this page will not invent a list.

What you do not pay for

The Season 1 battle pass is the headline thing Mistfall Hunter gives you free. The developers confirmed it is completely free for Season 1, and the details are worth stating precisely:

• The pass, Slumbering Contract, unlocks for free after seven days of cumulative logins — cumulative, not consecutive.
• The developers said that maintaining a certain level of activity during a season lets you renew the next season’s battle pass for free as well, so the pass is designed to stay free for players who keep playing.

That free pass is separate from the $24.99 price of the game. Cosmetic purchases via Fate Coins are an optional extra the store listing declares as in-app purchases; they are not part of the base price.

Discount history

The one discount the record holds is the launch offer. The developers ran a 10% introductory discount from 30 July to 12 August 2026, announced in the Official Launch FAQ. That offer has ended — the prices on this page are the standard figures, not a sale price.

The record holds no later discount and makes no forecast about future sales. If a discount is announced it will show up in the patch notes before it shows up anywhere else.

Platform

Mistfall Hunter sells on Windows via Steam, which is how the homepage lists the platform. The official patch notes also reference PS5 and Xbox — the developers confirmed cross-platform matchmaking and PS5/Xbox controller support in the Official Launch FAQ — so those platforms are part of the developers’ own record. This page stops at that official mention: the record does not commit to a console release date, and this page will not promise one.

Where the record stops

A few price-adjacent questions the record does not answer, and which this page will not guess at:

• Regional pricing — the $24.99 / $39.99 / $15 figures are the developers’ published US prices; per-region local pricing is not in the record.
• Refund policy — nothing in the record describes a refund window.
• Future price changes or sales — the record holds only the ended launch discount, and no plan or promise about future pricing.

Every number on this page traces back to a site record, and the prices are a first-party claim from Bellring Games’ own announcements — this is exactly how the site records its provenance on the data sources page.
