Agefield High: Rock the School launches on PC through Steam on Wednesday, August 12, 2026. The release time is locked, and the game unlocks at the same moment worldwide rather than staggering by region.

Quick answer: The game goes live at 9:00 a.m. PT / 12:00 p.m. ET / 4:00 p.m. UTC on August 12, 2026. Once the counter hits zero, the Steam page switches from a wishlist button to a purchase or install option.

How to be ready at launch

Wishlist the game on Steam. When it unlocks, Steam sends a notification and the store button changes to a purchase or install prompt, so you know the countdown has expired.
Confirm your PC clears the requirements. The game needs Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit), 16 GB RAM, an NVIDIA GTX 1070 or Radeon RX 580, DirectX 12, and 15 GB of free space. An SSD is required, not optional.
Leave room for the install and check the discount window. The 10% launch price is only active for the first seven days after release, so buying early locks in the lower cost.

What you get at launch

Agefield High: Rock the School is a single-player, open-world coming-of-age comedy from Refugium Games set in the early 2000s. You play as Sam, a new transfer student who teams up with Kale and Axel to pull off the “Rock the School” plan before graduation.

The town of Agefield covers the school campus, two neighborhoods, a town center, and the countryside. A time and school system means Sam is expected in class on weekdays, though skipping lessons and causing trouble is a valid way to play, as long as you watch out for teachers and police.

  • 32 main missions with two different endings.
  • 15 side missions and activities to earn cash.
  • Five lesson types covering English, Math, Geography, German, and Music.
  • Shops for bikes, clothes, hairstyles, tattoos, and accessories.
  • Roughly 8 to 10 hours for the main story.

The game carries a mature content warning for crude humor, mild violence, alcohol use, sexual innuendo, and partial nudity. There is no demo, so wishlisting is the fastest way to jump in the moment the counter reaches zero.
