What Midnight Launch: A GameShop Sim is
Midnight Launch: A GameShop Sim is an unreleased simulator game in development at Broadside Studios, currently scheduled for 22 October 2026. It is available on PC (Microsoft Windows) only. It runs on Unreal Engine 5.
The premise, in the publisher's words
Run a GameShop set in the early 2000's. Manage your products for sale such as games, consoles, and accessories. Customize your store and your character to make it your own. Play solo or enjoy up to a 4 player co-op and run the store your way.
How it plays
It is played from a first person perspective. Its themes are business. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component. Available modes: Co-operative, Multiplayer and Single player.
What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for i5 3550 / RYZEN 5 2500X, 4 GB RAM and NVIDIA GTX 1050 / AMD R9 270X. At 4GB of RAM, it will run on essentially any working PC — that is below what a budget laptop ships with today. Install size is roughly 5GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
