“Not announced” means the checked official source provides no version to buy or date to report. It does not mean a port can never happen.
Editions and beta access
The Steam store offered a base preorder and a Supporter Edition when checked. Preordering either edition was described as guaranteeing access to the August 21–23 closed beta. A Steam Playtest request was only a chance to receive access; it was not the same guarantee.
Edition contents and prices can change, so compare the live Steam purchase boxes before paying. The beta and Playtest page explains the access distinction and the dated test window.

Anti-cheat and Steam Deck caution
Steam discloses kernel-level Easy Anti-Cheat. The store currently lists Windows requirements and does not publish a Steam Deck compatibility promise. Do not treat the Linux hardware inside a Steam Deck as proof that the game will run; wait for a current compatibility result from the September 10 build or an official announcement.
