Review codes for the game, achieving gold status in early December, will be distributed "in the coming days," according to Tobias Stolz-Zwilling, the global public relations manager. To allow reviewers and streamers ample time for preparation, these codes are expected to be released four weeks before the game's launch.
Interestingly, initial "final previews," utilizing portions of the review version, are anticipated a week after code distribution.
The release date shift to February 4th, 2025, aims to deliver a polished gaming experience to kick off the new year. This adjustment 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 featuring 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.
