Season 7: November preparation watch

What changed

Cpt Hedgehog’s 20 October report specifies 9 November 2026 for pre-season on servers 3–164. Server 97 would be included. Earlier reporting offered only a disputed October/November window.

The main-season opening date and UK start time remain unverified.

Evidence and verification limits

Cpt Hedgehog is a community guide, not the publisher. It describes an official preview, but PiG could not independently authenticate the underlying notice during this check.

A Reddit discussion points to a Discord message claimed to be official. Its contents were inaccessible. The official website/wiki returned no readable article text; LORD SHOCKA’s video fetch was throttled. These access limits do not establish that a source failed or that the report is false.

Official UK App Store release notes show version 1.0.365 with an Excavator naming fix. They do not confirm a Season 7 launch.
