Game review codes will be distributed within days of the game achieving gold status in early December, according to Tobias Stolz-Zwilling, the global public relations manager. These codes are expected four weeks before launch to allow reviewers and streamers ample time for preparation and initial feedback.
Interestingly, initial "final previews," based on sections of the review build, are anticipated a week after code distribution.
The release date has been shifted to February 4th, 2025, to ensure a polished and exceptional gaming experience for players at the start of the year. This strategic move also mitigates direct competition with other high-profile releases like Assassin's Creed Shadows, Avowed, and Monster Hunter Wilds, all launching in February.
Platform compatibility includes PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PS5. Console players can expect 4K/30 fps and 1440p/60 fps options, with PS5 Pro optimization implemented since launch.
For PC gamers aiming for ultra settings, the recommended specifications are: Intel Core i7-13700K or AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D processor, 32GB of RAM, and a GeForce RTX 4080 or Radeon RX 7900 XT graphics card.
