Gawr Gura Quest for Bread Launch notes for 27 August 2026
Store facts for people still asking if the shark game is out.
Kenny Park posted that Quest for Bread was out and 10% off for the first week. The discount ran through 3 September 2026. The Steam app ID is 2054520. Publisher: holo Indie. This page freezes the launch-week snapshot so later patches do not rewrite history inside a guide.
Store snapshot
- Release: 27 August 2026
- Platforms: Windows via Steam. Steam Deck Verified.
- Mode: single-player. Single-player only.
- Features: Steam Achievements (11), Steam Cloud, Family Sharing, full controller support including Xbox pads, save-anytime, no quick-time events.
- Interface language: English only.
- Length on the store: roughly two hours of campaign, plus silly hats and a dedicated speedrun mode.
- Pitch: jump, spin, fight, reunite with lost bread. Hololive jokes included; stream knowledge not required.
Minimum specs are modest (Intel i3-370M class, 4 GB RAM, GeForce MX 150). The sound-card line is a joke (“what is a sound card”). Steam’s client itself wants Windows 10 or later even if older OS strings linger on the page.
What launch week felt like
Reviews opened Very Positive as the count climbed through the first days. Some store locales showed about 94% positive of 87 reviews, with a concurrent peak around 140. As of 29 August 2026, Steam News had not posted a post-launch hotfix. That is a healthy indie launch for a two-hour fan platformer, not a live-service spike. If you are reading this after the intro discount, check Steam for the current price rather than quoting €7.33 / $7.19 forever.
The official trailer in the middle of this page is the 37-second launch clip, not a walkthrough. For movement, use How to Play. For whether two hours is enough, use the review. For the Next Fest slice that came first, use the demo notes.
After you buy
Install, then Getting Started. Do not hunt every hat on night one. Do not open speedrun mode until the lava fortress is boring. Tick hats and achievements on a second file. Official channels stay on Links. This wiki is unofficial; Cover Corp and holo Indie did not ask for it.
Keep this snapshot even after a patch. Guides should not silently rewrite the launch price or the roughly two hours line. If Steam later adds a language, that belongs in a new child under this hub. The trailer in the middle is historical mood, not a controls lesson. Quote app 2054520 when you send the game to a friend. Quote Deck Verified for handheld. Quote English-only for the pause menu. Then send Getting Started. This page is the receipt.
How to quote this page without rotting
A launch snapshot dies if later writers quietly change it. Keep the date, the intro discount window, the English-only UI, Deck Verified, eleven achievements, and the two-hour store line even if a patch later adds a language pack or a twelfth badge. New facts go to a new child under Updates. Friends who only want a buy link can stop at Steam app 2054520 and the official links. Friends who already own it should leave this page for Getting Started, then How to Play. The trailer in the middle is mood. It does not replace a lava read. If review scores move, the review can mention the new temperature; this receipt stays at launch week. That discipline is how a small wiki avoids contradicting itself six months later.
Close this updates launch tab when the next action is obvious. If the next action is a jump, open How to Play. If it is a hat, open the hat tracker. If it is a named bar, save at the door. If it is a buy button, use Steam app 2054520. The rest of updates launch is context. Do not reread it instead of playing Quest for Bread. Two hours is already short. A wiki that becomes homework has failed the shark.
