Why does Steam show October 28 instead of October 29?

Direct answer

A global unlock at 02:00 UTC on October 29 is still October 28 in parts of the Americas. The differing calendar labels do not by themselves prove that PC receives early access.

What is not confirmed

This answer is intentionally limited to what the cited primary source establishes. It does not rely on fan-maintained lists, retailer placeholders, edited trailer cuts, leaks, or assumptions imported from other action RPGs.

How this answer will be updated

The page will be checked after the dedicated summer State of Play, material store-page changes, and the retail launch. New details will be added only when they answer this exact question; separate search intents will keep their own URLs to avoid overlap.
