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. This strategic move allows reviewers and streamers ample time, approximately four weeks before the game's release, to craft their initial thoughts and comprehensive reviews.
Interestingly, the first "final previews" based on selected portions of the game from the review version are expected to surface just a week after the codes are distributed. This gives audiences a tantalizing glimpse into what they can expect from the full release.
In a thoughtful decision, the developers have opted to push back the release date, ensuring that players kick off 2025 with an exceptional gaming experience. The game is now slated for release on February 4. This adjustment not only promises a polished product but also strategically avoids clashing with the February launches of other high-profile titles such as Assassin's Creed Shadows, Avowed, and Monster Hunter Wilds.
The game will be available on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PS5, boasting impressive visuals with support for 4K at 30 fps and 1440p at 60 fps on consoles. Furthermore, it has been optimized specifically for the PS5 Pro from launch day, ensuring a top-notch experience for PlayStation enthusiasts.
For PC gamers looking to experience the game at ultra settings, you'll need a robust setup including an Intel Core i7-13700K or AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D processor, 32GB of RAM, and a powerful graphics card like the GeForce RTX 4080 or Radeon RX 7900 XT.
