Comment: Still needs some time I think. It's been released, but few reviews from sources listed in WP:VG/S have come out. I found one for VentureBeat here: [1]. Can you find two more reliable reviews on the game as listed in WP:VG/S to get it across the line of notability? ＶＲＸＣＥＳ (talk) 07:35, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Unfortunately this fails WP:GNG as the article lacks significant coverage from reliable sources of the type covered in WP:VG/S, indicating that it just may be WP:TOOSOON for this to merit an article. Happy to chat if you have any questions or need help. ＶＲＸＣＥＳ (talk) 06:11, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
