Our read of the evidence
Mostly unverified. All three key claims — launch date, the one‑million‑copy milestone, and the fastest‑selling designation — are supported only by reports from vgchartz.com, with no primary‑source confirmation from the publisher or platform holders. No official statement from the developer has been cited, and the only additional information pending is a planned photo mode noted by GamingBolt. Consequently, the evidence remains largely unverified.
Our rating counts evidence, not opinions about anyone: events confirmed by a primary source (the person's own post, their official site, a court or government record) weigh most, then how many independent outlets report the story.
What happens next
November 2026: Photo Mode planned for sometime in November (according to GamingBolt).
