What's inside
Built for launch night. Ready for your 100%.
Six things Pinsula does, from the countdown to the last collectible. Everything marked “at launch” switches on from Nov 19, as we verify it in the game.
-
01 · Countdown
Launch night, sorted
A live countdown to pre-load and release in your own time zone, the reported unlock times, and a launch-prep checklist: pick your edition, pre-load, clear storage, update your console.

- A Lock Screen Live Activity in the final hours
- Optional reminders on pre-load day, launch eve and launch night
- Ask Siri: “Pinsula countdown”

- Read the steps aloud or copy them, in PlayStation or Xbox layout
- A warning on any code that disables trophies

05 · Wildlife
A wildlife field guide
32 species listed so far, out of 170+ reported, each with its tier, habitat and status.
- Log sightings as you find them At launch
- Add your own photo to each species Pro At launch
- Hide legendary names until you find them

-
06 · Guide
Every claim, fact-checked
Every pre-launch claim carries one of three labels, with links to its sources:
Confirmed Reported Rumor
- Regions, characters, radio stations, activities, editions and a release timeline
- Search across the whole guide
- New facts, pins, cheats and checklists arrive as content updates, without waiting for an app update

Tested before it's listed
A cheat code appears only after we test it on console, and a map pin only after we verify it in the game.
Every claim labeled
Before launch, every fact carries its status and its sources, so you know what's confirmed and what's still a rumor.
