- The trailer confirms a firm release date of October 6, 2026, and activates pre-orders across digital storefronts.
- The marketing description frames a revenge-driven plot that centers on Darius Pax, the dominant League Champion Kestar Bool, the mysterious pilot Shade, and engineer Hibi who helps Shade challenge Bool’s control.
