According to Tobias Stolz-Zwilling, the global public relations manager, review codes for the eagerly awaited game will be distributed "in the coming days" following the game's gold status in early December. These codes are expected to be released four weeks before the game's launch, giving reviewers and streamers ample time to craft their initial impressions and reviews.
Interestingly, the first "final previews" based on segments of the game from the review version are scheduled to appear just one week after the distribution of review codes. This strategy aims to build anticipation and provide a comprehensive look at what players can expect.
In a strategic move, the developers have decided to delay the game's release to ensure players experience a polished and exceptional gaming experience at the start of 2025. The new release date is set for February 4. This change also strategically positions the game to avoid clashing with the launches of major titles like Assassin's Creed Shadows, Avowed, and Monster Hunter Wilds, all slated for February.
The game will be available on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PS5. It supports 4K resolution at 30 fps and 1440p at 60 fps on consoles, and has been specifically optimized for the PS5 Pro from launch day.
For those looking to enjoy the game at ultra settings on PC, you'll need robust hardware: an Intel Core i7-13700K or AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D processor, 32GB of RAM, and a powerful graphics card such as a GeForce RTX 4080 or Radeon RX 7900 XT.
