Soulframe, an upcoming fantasy role-playing game from Digital Extremes, has climbed Steam’s “Trending Upcoming” charts even though the title does not yet have a confirmed release date, highlighting how early access activity and community engagement can boost visibility on the platform.
The game is currently listed on Steam as “Coming soon,” but ongoing pre-alpha test waves and regular developer streams have generated increased player attention. As the original article notes, Soulframe’s rise on the charts reflects the fact that “Steam’s trending lists are driven by attention, not launch proximity.”

Digital Extremes has been running so-called Preludes tests, giving selected players and early supporters access to unfinished builds. These sessions, combined with frequent updates and promotional livestreams, have contributed to surges in wishlists and follower counts, placing the game alongside titles that are closer to release.
Soulframe is positioned as a large-scale action RPG rather than a traditional online role-playing game. The studio has highlighted open environments, slower-paced melee combat and a narrative-driven structure, with gameplay footage showing heavy weapons, magic abilities and large enemy encounters instead of fast, instance-based battles.

Data from SteamDB indicates that the game’s visibility is backed by strong engagement metrics. Soulframe currently ranks within the top 100 for both total wishlists and wishlist activity, with more than 30,000 followers. While this momentum points to sustained interest, the developers have not indicated that a launch is imminent, and the project remains in long-term development.
