Some may be in for a surprise. I have noted in my MS account where I pre-ordered the deluxe edition it will be released tomorrow the 17th. So an early get for me. Hopefully that means midnight because if so it will be a lonnng sleepless night! That's North American Central Time..

At which time? And which part of the world?

If I recall correctly, it said on my order (Premium Deluxe Super Sexy Love You Long Time version) from the MS store, that it would be available at 23:00 GMT on the 17th

I can't find it on the Store, but I recall when I originally purchased, that I was advised the available time was 00:00 on the 18th. Just over 20 hours from now.

Mine was showing 0100 in Atlantic Time, UTC-3

me as well, for New Brunswick, 1 am (BTW it's UTC-4 not -3 me thinks)

so it must be Eastern time release at midnight, just like most things

What date? It can't be midnight @ Eastern Time. I have August 18th 2020 00.00 - which is Midnight CEST (UTC +2)

These timestamps doesn't make sense to me...

Unless they have 1 release window for Asia/Pacific, 1 windows for Europe and 1 for Americas ?!

Sorry, I'm confused! 😄

Atlantic is UTC-3 in the Spring/summer and UTC-4 after the time change in the fall.

For me it says: Available Monday, August 17th, 2020.
Residence Germany
For me, this means 00:00 CET tonight

Doesn't make sense... what does it say for the time? 
If you have August 17th 2020 00.00, then we're at the same time-zone - but (for some weird reason) 24 hours apart... 😕

I can change my regional settings in Windows 10 (follow guide here).

• If I set it to Australia I get a release time from Microsoft Store at 17th of August at 04.00 PM.
• If I set it to Germany I get 18th of August at 12.00 AM
• If I set it to United States, I get 18th of August at 06.00 AM

I have no idea of whether or not this affects if you (in theory) can download it earlier by changing your regional location in Windows 10?!

Most likely, yes. 

If I set Kiribati (earliest timezone (UTC +14) I get 17th of August at 12.00 PM... 

But, you're probably right... 🙂
