Why the date matters for your prep
- Alpha Demo ends September 30, 2026, 15:00 UTC — months before launch. Skills you build on Changban still help, but expect balance deltas.
- Early purchase bonus Harvest God Armor is listed through March 17, 2027—buyers shortly after launch can still claim it per current marketing.
- Pre-order Standard advertises Creator Goddess Garb; Deluxe adds Season Pass content with DLC1 August 31, 2027 and DLC2 October 31, 2027.
- Tier lists on this wiki stay labeled Alpha/preview meta until post-launch patches—see Tier List Hub.

PC notes (Steam & Microsoft Store)
Steam listing 4507990 currently shows system requirements TBD. Bookmark System Requirements and the official US site for updates. Do not trust random GPU charts circulating without Team NINJA or Steam page backing.
If you dual-wield Game Pass PC and Steam wishlists, decide which storefront owns your save ecosystem before discount season—cross-progression details should be confirmed closer to launch in updates posts.
Switch 2 expectations
Nintendo Switch 2 is a day-one platform. Performance targets are not fully public in the same way as PS5/Series showcases. Prefer Controls habits that do not depend on ultra-high frame assumptions, and re-check this page when KOEI TECMO publishes Switch 2 specifics.
How release timing interacts with guides
- Getting Started — follow at demo and launch; refresh after day-one patches.
- What’s New — explains Wings of Ember systems so March content drops make sense.
- Combat & Insight Skills — practice now; expect numeric retunes later.
- Character Creation — safe to experiment in Alpha; expect possible remake/respec rules at retail.
- Players / Co-op — plan friend schedules around March 4 evening lockouts in your timezone.
Buying checklist before March 4, 2027
- Confirm platform and whether Game Pass already covers you.
- Compare Standard $69.99 vs Deluxe $99.99 on Edition Comparison.
- Note cosmetic deadlines (Creator Goddess Garb pre-order; Harvest God Armor early purchase).
- Wishlist Steam or console store pages from Links.
- Clear calendar time for co-op—three-player sessions benefit from coordinated days off.
- Revisit Updates Hub the week of launch for patch 1.0 notes.
Myths to ignore
- “It slipped to 2028” — not supported by current Team NINJA / KOEI TECMO dating.
- “Demo progress fully carries” — treat Alpha as practice unless official carryover is announced.
- “No Game Pass” — Xbox day-one Game Pass is part of the stated platform package.
- “PC specs are X/Y/Z already” — Steam still lists TBD.
- “Codes category live on this wiki” — we do not maintain redeem-code pages; use official channels only.
After launch
This URL stays the canonical release-date reference. When servers open, we will append launch-day patch summaries and link balance changes into weapons, builds, and martial arts pages. Until then, the actionable move is simple: play the Alpha Demo while it lasts, learn Deflect and Insight Skills, and set a reminder for March 4, 2027.
