How we work
Sourced from official channels
Store pages, publisher announcements and developer interviews — never other guide sites. Every article lists the sources it used at the bottom.
Updated through launch week
Release-window details change constantly. Articles carry a last-updated date and get revised when official information moves, rather than left stale.
AI-assisted, human-checked
We draft with AI tools from a sourced research dossier, then verify against those sources. Read our full editorial process.
