The article does not meet Wikipedia's general notability guideline, as there is only one significant reliable source available online ( Game Rant, which isn't high-quality). Metacritic shows zero reviews for the game. Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 15:54, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
- There is also a Vice article that counts toward notability. Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 17:56, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

- @ NoonIcarus: Thanks for these links. I apologize for missing the Vice article—fascinatingly, I can't get it to show up on Google until I append the word "Vice" to the query.
- Vice clearly counts towards notability. It's a high-quality source with significant coverage. In addition, although it's not a high-quality source Game Rant likely counts as well. However, while Eurogamer is reliable, a three-paragraph update isn't significant coverage. I'm also not sure that any of the other sources count as reliable, particularly as they don't appear on VG/RS. Can you give more info on how they satisfy WP:RS?
- Keep: Plenty of sources, as shown by NoonIcarus above. Also,
WP:VG/RS says [about] Game Rant
is only unreliable for BLPs: "Topics of low potential for controversy such as general pop culture topics or game information are allowable areas." 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 ( talk) 17:28, 23 August 2022 (UTC)- @ Ficaia: You've left out a pretty important part of that sentence. Game Rant isn't a high-quality source per VG/RS because that says "Consensus is that it is not a high quality source, to be treated with caution and excluded from BLP pages." (emphasis mine) Ed [talk] [majestic titan] 17:56, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
- Keep there's also articles in MEL Magazine [12] and TechRaptor [13] that haven't been mentioned yet above.-- Jahaza ( talk) 20:22, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
- Comment These interviews can buff out the article (although they don't contribute to the article's notability). This article is also quite good. Coin945 ( talk) 16:57, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
- Draftify WP:TOOSOON with insufficient reliable sources (as opposed to unreliable sources, which there are a lot of). 1.0 release may result in more reviews. Either way, the current state of it isn't ready for mainspace. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 18:15, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
- Keep thanks to sources from NoonIcarus. Vice and Eurogamer are good sources among others, and are sufficient with what the article has.

- If you are referring to this source, it is purely a news update, not WP:SIGCOV in the slightest, which was mentioned earlier in the discussion, ignoring that fact and proceeding as though it was is disingenuous. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 15:05, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
