Pre-release checklist

Known, unknown, and worth tracking

The useful action today is to separate confirmed status from details that still require an official announcement or released build.

Confirmed	Steam (PC) confirmed; Single-player and Online Co-op; up to four players; nine-language count; Gestalt Studio; Polden Publishing.
Available actions	Wishlist and request playtest access on the official Steam listing. A request does not promise admission.
Still unknown	Numeric price, specific release date or window, and official Xbox or PS5 confirmation in the frozen evidence.
Guide status	Pre-release preview only. No controls, routes, loadouts, or best strategies are claimed as tested.

Evidence boundary

Reviewed August 13, 2026. Verified claims come from a frozen first-party Steam snapshot. There was no hands-on gameplay verification, so mechanic descriptions are not turned into strategy. Release status, price, playtest access, languages, modes, and company roles can change.
