Question 1

What is Game Release Hub?

Accepted Answer

Game Release Hub is where you go when you want to actually keep up with what's coming out. It pulls data from IGDB so you get real release dates, a browsable calendar, and a tier list tool for ranking the games you care about — all in one spot.

Question 2

How often is the game data updated?

Accepted Answer

Pretty frequently. We hit the IGDB API multiple times a day, so if a publisher shuffles a release date around, it won't take long for that to show up here. That said, the games industry moves fast — when something big changes, always worth double-checking with the official source.

Question 3

Can I filter games by platform or genre?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. The calendar has a filter panel where you can narrow things down by platform — PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo — and by genre. You can stack filters, adjust the date range, or just search for a specific title if you already know what you're after.

Question 4

Is Game Release Hub free to use?

Accepted Answer

Completely free. No account needed, no paywalled features. Browse the calendar, dig into game details, build tier lists — it's all open. Gaming info should just be available, full stop.

Question 5

What platforms are supported?

Accepted Answer

We cover the big ones — PC (Steam, Epic, Origin), PS4 and PS5, Xbox One and Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and mobile when the data's there. If a game drops across multiple platforms, you'll see all of them.

Question 6

How can I find games releasing this month?

Accepted Answer

Head to the calendar and it'll land you on the current month. Scroll through to see what's dropping day by day, or use the filter panel to trim it down to just the platforms or genres you actually play.

Question 7

Can I create and share tier lists?

Accepted Answer

You can build tier lists and rank games from S down to F based on ratings. Right now everything saves locally in your browser, so it's your own personal ranking — not shared publicly. That might change down the road depending on what people want.

Question 8

What information is available for each game?

Accepted Answer

Quite a bit, honestly. Each game page shows the release date, platforms, genres, developer and publisher info, a description, screenshots, trailers where available, user ratings, and store links so you can actually go buy it.

Question 9

How accurate are the release dates?

Accepted Answer

The dates come from IGDB and are usually reliable, but publishers push things around all the time — delays especially. We update as fast as we can when changes happen, but for anything critical, it's worth checking the publisher's official channels too.

Question 10

Can I get notifications about new releases?

Accepted Answer

Not yet — push notifications aren't live. For now, bookmarking the calendar and checking back is the move. It's something we're thinking about for the future, especially if that's something users keep asking for.

Question 11

What browsers are supported?

Accepted Answer

Any modern browser works — Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge. The site is also built to be mobile-friendly, so pulling it up on your phone while you're out is totally fine.

Question 12

How can I contact support or report issues?

Accepted Answer

There's contact info in the footer. If something's broken or you've got a feature idea, we genuinely want to hear it. The site gets better based on what real users actually run into.
