Sources & Editorial Policy

Search tools and competitor pages find leads. Official material, reproducible current gameplay, and independent corroboration determine what the wiki publishes as fact.

9 source recordsUpdated Aug 1, 2026

Publication rules

  1. OfficialTeam Horay, the official Steam store/news feed, and the official game page prove only what they explicitly state.
  2. Observed gameplayCurrent-version video can prove visible mechanics within the recorded context.
  3. CorroboratedCommunity claims need two independent current-version sources and no unresolved official conflict.
  4. Partial or EA-onlyUseful history stays visible with its boundary and cannot become a current recommendation.
  5. Withdrawn or rejectedContradicted leads remain in the research log so the same error is not repeated.
