Deluxe Edition

Saros is out soon for most and out already for some, with different editions of the game having different release times and release dates accordingly. If you bought the deluxe edition it'll be playable for you right now, but those who bought the standard edition will have to wait until April 30, as we'll lay out below. We'll make clear the different release times for Saros, broken down by region and time zone accordingly.

Release times and date for Saros Standard Edition

If you pre-ordered the Standard Edition of Saros, you can expect to play it in your region / time zone at the following times and dates:

PDT (US West Coast): 9 P.M., Wednesday, April 29, 2026
EDT (US East Coast): 12 A.M., Thursday, April 30, 2026
BST (UK): 12 A.M. BST, Thursday, April 30, 2026
CEST (West Europe): 12 A.M., Thursday, April 30, 2026
JST (Japan): 12 A.M., Thursday, April 30, 2026

It's worth clarifying that with these being digital preorders, for most players these games go live on the PlayStation Store at midnight for your local time zone, rather than simultaneous releases across the globe. You can also pre-load the game if you pre-order, with it taking 83.5GB of storage space.

If you purchased the Deluxe Edition of Saros, it should be available to play right now, as the Deluxe Edition includes 48 hours of early access to the game, effectively allowing you to play it two days prior to the standard release in your region. If you haven't bought the game yet, buying the Deluxe Edition should allow you to play it immediately (at least, once it's downloaded).
