THE SHORT ANSWER
Check for an explicit publisher announcement before treating any proposed PC date as confirmed.
Ask one specific question
Does the post link to a dated publisher announcement that actually names the platform? A confident headline is not a substitute for that evidence.
Keep the questions separate
A release date, supported hardware, and system requirements are different claims. Verify each one individually.
Follow the topic
