How this wiki works
Every factual claim on this site traces to a listed source: the Steam store page (app 4094350), official Steam news posts, or June 2026 demo reports — and demo-era claims are labelled as such. Where no source states a number (price, unlock hour, recipe quantities, map scale details), the page says TBA or "not confirmed" instead of guessing.
Guide pages marked "post-launch" are structural placeholders by design: they go from framework to fully verified walkthroughs within 48 hours of the Early Access unlock on October 16, 2026.
