Details that need separate answers

Exact launch unlock hours, campaign vehicle unlock conditions, the full track roster, cross-save and a recommended PC specification tier are not established by the references above. The guides keep those limits visible rather than turn a platform listing or a trailer into a complete walkthrough.

The split-screen answer comes from a direct interview with Fuse Games CEO Matt Webster. It is separate from the developer-pinned Steam FAQ. Preview observations are not a promise of every final-release parameter.
