Fulfillment time line - estimates?

Apologies if this has been presented already in some of your videos - but have you released a fulfillment timeline. I ask with understanding there is a lot uncertainty in game production, now more than ever, but is there an esimate on when this pirate ship sets sail?

Your mind is the limit!
