Steam Availability
The Steam Store page is the best place to confirm the live button state. Before launch, expect wishlist or follow options. At release, Steam should switch to purchase or install access if the date and time hold.
Demo Note
Demo reports, demo achievements and demo bugs can help players prepare, but they are not automatically final-release behavior. Treat any demo-only route, bug or achievement method as build-specific until the Sep 3, 2026 release build is checked.
What Remains Unconfirmed
The official date is public, and SteamDB currently lists a precise UTC time. Still unconfirmed for the release version: exact store button timing if Steam changes it, launch discount or pricing, final achievement list, live bug status, and whether any last-minute publisher announcement adjusts availability.
