The Wardogs release date fast approaches, following its super popular beta last weekend before it enters early access. As our own FPS aficionado Morgan Park notes, it's a "100-player milsim that's inspired by Arma but plays like Battlefield," and its formula of cash-earning, all-out warfare is definitely appealing to a cross-section of game-hungry shooter crowds. Here's when you can expect to play the game in your timezone.

Wardogs release times for each region

The Wardogs release date is September 10 for most regions, though it'll drop on September 11 in certain territories due to timezones and its simultaneous release. Here's when you can expect to play (confirmed by Steam):

Can you preload Wardogs?

At the time of writing this, just less than a day before release, there's currently no preload available for Wardogs. This isn't that unusual for an early access game, even if it is a popular one. Alas, there's also been no official communication from the developer indicating that a preload is planned, so it looks like we might all be downloading that 50GB on day one.
