Cubed locks September 18, 2026 on Steam as a dual-mode puzzle and arcade game from developer-publisher Hobbes Foundation. Steam’s Coming Soon page lists that calendar day, Windows support, and full VR controller support alongside a flat play path — one build that can run seated or standing in a headset, or on a monitor.
The store pitch is short and clear. Puzzle mode is the calm lane: relax, clear boards, get your mind off the day. Arcade mode is the competitive lane: challenge yourself solo, or bring a friend for co-op or PvP where you can steal and sabotage toward the same score. That split is the whole product brief on the page. There is no longer campaign pitch, no lore dump, and no Quest or PS VR2 storefront attached to app 4931880.

Where it sits on the September calendar
September 18 sits between the busy mid-month Quest and Steam wave and the louder September 24 stack (Into the Radius 2 on PS VR2, Scared by Squares and Goofy Dungeon on Steam). Cubed is the lighter entry that week: a short-form puzzle/arcade loop with optional VR rather than a full survival campaign. XR Source’s September release table already carries the same Steam day.
Wishlist: Cubed on Steam. Trackers such as SRec mirror the September 18 Coming Soon date from the storefront.
