How much is Shift at Midnight?
Shift at Midnight is priced at USD $9.99 on both Steam and Xbox. A 10% launch discount ran through July 29, 2026, and regional pricing varies by store.
Standard price
The list price is $9.99 USD on Steam and on the Xbox / Microsoft Store. It is a fixed, one-time purchase (or free with Game Pass - see the 'is it free' answer).
The price is the same on both stores before any regional adjustment, so platform choice does not change the base cost.
Launch discount
A 10% launch discount was active through July 29, 2026, dropping the effective price for early buyers. After that window the standard $9.99 applies unless a new sale begins.
Steam and the Microsoft Store sometimes run their own seasonal sales later, so it is worth a quick check of the listing before you commit.
Regional pricing
Steam and the Microsoft Store both use regional pricing, so the number you see in your local currency depends on your store region. Always check the listing in your own currency before purchasing.
Regional pricing is set by the store, not by us - if a price looks different from a friend's, it is almost always the regional store rate at work.
Game Pass vs buying
If you already have Game Pass, the game costs you nothing extra, which makes 'how much' effectively zero while subscribed. Buying outright makes sense if you are not a subscriber and want to keep it permanently.
