What it means for players
This distinction prevents the platform list from being misread as an edition list. Digital store availability may appear later.
This update narrows one specific player question using the publisher’s wording. It does not turn unreleased footage or marketing copy into invented routes, values, schedules, or performance claims.
What remains unconfirmed
Digital preorder dates, preload, digital bonuses, Xbox physical availability, and edition differences remain unknown.
