About the Playtest
The separate Mimic Party Playtest app went up on August 20, 2026, with sign-ups announced through the developer's Discord. Its store page now redirects to the full game. Workshop packs made during that window are still live: the oldest date from before the store page itself was public. Browse them in the sound pack browser, oldest first, or read how the free options changed at release.
Where new updates appear
FoliesApp posts announcements on the Steam store page and runs the official Discord. The All Characters DLC that arrived the day after launch is covered on the price page.
