Reviews are available; the embargo hour is a different fact
No publisher review-embargo time is stated in the official references used here. IGN’s review is available, but a publication time alone does not establish the restriction communicated to reviewers.

Embargo, release and pre-load
An embargo concerns review publication. Release concerns player availability. A pre-load, where offered, concerns downloads. One does not prove the others or identify the patch a reviewer tested.
Read launch coverage with context
For technical criticism, check platform, hardware, graphics mode and build. For story criticism, consider whether the reviewer values the same things you do. A demanding-combat enthusiast and a story-first player can describe the same encounter very differently.
After launch, these details help more than repeatedly checking an unsupported embargo date. The original independent review remains linked in Sources below.
