✍️ What we know so far

Automatic note by LuaCat Games, built from what we know about the coverage (who reported it, how many sites, the story’s history) — not a translation or copy of the source.

Only one source has this so far: PC Gamer. If other sites confirm it, they’ll show up below.

Bottom line: Take it with a grain of salt until another site confirms — details often change along the way.
