What is not confirmed
- Whether PS4 saves move to the PS5 version. The notes we read do not say.
- A native Switch 2 edition or a performance patch. None was in the October announcements. Compatibility play of the Switch cart is all that is documented.
- macOS and Linux receiving the 2026 Windows patch. Steam still lists the platforms. The patch post talks about PC as Windows.
