Originally aimed for a March 2026 launch, game director Jonathan Rogers expressed skepticism about meeting this date, indicating a potential slip into a late 2026 release.

Despite setbacks, a major update featuring the new druid class, a new league, and optimization improvements is expected on December 12, 2025.
