- The game launched with mixed reception: critics noted it as a fun, light arcade experience but lacking depth or long-term replay value, and it wasn’t recommended to buy at full price for most players.[9][10]
- Sony and developers stressed the delay aimed to maximize online player counts at launch, given the multiplayer-focused nature of the game.[2]
- The PlayStation Store and retailers issued refunds to those who pre-ordered, due to the shift in release timing.[2]
- After launch, the game continued to receive updates and content iterations, with ongoing coverage and gameplay demonstrations from outlets and creators.[6][7]
