Review codes for the game will be distributed in the coming days following its gold master status achievement in early December, according to global PR manager Tobias Stolz-Zwilling. To allow reviewers and streamers ample time to prepare their previews and reviews, these codes are expected to be released four weeks before the game's launch.
Interestingly, initial "final previews" based on sections of the review build will be available a week after code distribution.
The developers opted to delay the launch date to ensure a polished and exceptional gaming experience for players at the start of 2025. The current release date is February 4th. This shift also strategically avoids direct competition with the February releases of Assassin's Creed Shadows, Avowed, and Monster Hunter Wilds.
The game will be available on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PS5. Console players can expect 4K/30 fps and 1440p/60 fps support, with PS5 Pro optimization implemented since launch.
For PC players aiming for ultra settings, a system with an 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 is recommended.
