Although an official confirmation from developer Wildlight Entertainment has yet to be issued, the countdown on the game’s Steam page indicates that players can expect the game to become available at this time.

As fans prepare for the launch, it is important to note that pre-orders and pre-loads will not be possible. Players will need to refresh their respective storefronts, whether it be Steam, PlayStation, or Xbox, to gain access to the game as soon as it unlocks.
