"We don't normally announce a date until we know the game is 100% ready but in the spirit of Max's birthday (today) we wanted to let you know early that we are aiming to release Episode 5 'Polarized' October 20," the game's producer, Luc Baghadoust, wrote on the Square Enix blog post (via IGN).

This isn't an official date though, as Baghadoust went on to warn followers that basically anything could happen and the release could possibly be pushed back.

"Many things can change in the lead up to release but the team are working really hard to try and hit this date," he explained. "We know the wait may be a bit longer than some of you were hoping for but we want to ensure Episode 5 is the best it can be."
