Guidance for PlayStation players: 1⃣ On your console, go to Settings > System > Date and Time > Set Date and Time > Set Manually. 2⃣ Change the date to March 1, 2024. 3⃣ Once this change has been done, the game should function normally.

@0xabad1dea I like how they don't directly acknowledge it's a leap year issue
@outadoc @0xabad1dea in a way I think they did the sensible thing: provide the workaround. The majority of users don't care about the reason, they just want to run their game.
