What time did it unlock?
Bandai Namco’s May 2025 launch guide gave consoles a local-midnight release on May 30. Its PC schedule instead listed fixed unlock times for named cities. That distinction means a PC time should be read against its listed city and time zone, rather than treated as a universal midnight release.
