Launch planning for Steam games
Steam Launch Marketing
A launch campaign works best when the store page, audience-building channels, content, and release-week communication are prepared before the release button is pressed. WTC Games can support the full launch window or individual parts of it.
Build the campaign around the release timeline
Instead of treating launch day as one isolated event, connect the weeks before release with the first days after release so each activity has a clear purpose.
Create pre-launch demand
Use wishlists, demos, Next Fest, Reddit, curators, creators, and community updates to build awareness before release.
Support launch and follow-up
Coordinate launch-week posts, media materials, community activity, feedback, and post-launch updates rather than ending promotion on day one.

Read guide →Frequently asked questions
How early should Steam launch marketing begin?
For many indie games, the useful work starts weeks or months before release because store-page improvements, wishlists, demos, festivals, creator outreach, and community growth need time to compound.
Is Steam Next Fest part of a launch campaign?
It can be an important pre-launch milestone. A Next Fest plan should connect the demo, store page, livestreams, community activity, feedback, and the next communication step after the event.
What should happen during launch week?
Launch week usually combines store-page monitoring, community posts, Reddit or media activity, creator follow-up, review and feedback monitoring, and fast communication around issues or updates.
Can I purchase only one launch service?
Yes. Teams can use an individual service, such as a trailer, Reddit campaign, store-page optimization, or press kit, without committing to a full launch package.
