Underkeep is a first-person, grid-based, turn-based dungeon crawler by Rake in Grass, scheduled for 5 November 2026 on Steam and GOG. Both stores still showed a forthcoming release when checked today. If you wanted the FFXIV dungeon or the WoW delve, that is a different place.
What you are buying
You lead four heroes. Each one gets a race, a class, a name, and a portrait. The store page calls synergy the whole strategy: a good team deepens it, a bad one seals the grave. Movement is on a grid. Combat waits until every hero has acted. Stamina and mana both run out, and the automap draws the corridors as you walk them.
The studio says a focused run is 15 to 20 hours, and a thorough one can reach 30. Steam lists seven interface languages: English, French, German, Spanish (Spain), Czech, Polish, and Russian. Steam leaves audio/subtitle columns empty; GOG marks audio and text, so full localization coverage is disputed. The 3 November countdown also says six languages, against the seven named store rows. A Nintendo Switch edition is planned for the first quarter of 2027, with no day inside that quarter.
