Time-zone notes
Steam store page release dates are stored in the storefront's local convention, and US Steam traffic typically reads the date in the user's local time. If the store page shows 2026-09-11 with no specific hour, treat the date as a calendar-day release rather than a precise launch hour. Exact launch-hour times per region are not announced as of 2026-09-09.
