This page is the audit trail. Each source is listed with its publisher, type, access date and the kind of claim it supports. Search-result snippets are not treated as a substitute for opening the source, and preview evidence is never presented as a final stat sheet.

How sources are used
When two sources disagree, we state the discrepancy. Store metadata can lag behind a press release. A named preview of the demo is evidence for that build, not a guarantee of final balance. For the full evidence standard, see theeditorial policy.
The PSPrices listing is used only for the observed US Epic price and is explicitly labelled as a third-party price-tracker rather than a publisher announcement.
