THE SHORT ANSWER

The official announcement sets PC and console launch for September 16, 2026, and mobile for September 23. The English Steam listing currently shows September 15; use your own platform’s regional store for its local date.

The announced launch schedule

These are the dates in the global launch announcement. A storefront may present a local calendar date, and the mobile release is a separate launch one week later.

Why do some stores say September 15?

The US PS5 store lists September 16 at 02:00 UTC. That corresponds to September 15 at 7:00 p.m. in Los Angeles and 10:00 p.m. in New York, or September 16 at 10:00 a.m. in Shanghai.

Steam’s English and Chinese date displays differ. A time-zone difference is a possible explanation, but a matching exact Steam unlock time has not been confirmed. The PS5 time should not be applied to every platform.

Check your platform’s regional store for its unlock time.

What you can do before launch

  • Check the official store for your platform and region.
  • PC players can compare hardware with Steam’s published requirements.
  • Distinguish wishlisting and pre-registration from an available download.
  • Mobile players should check again around the separate September 23 release.
