Description

The state tag is a multi-use label that states the current condition of the game the article is covering.

Note that the tag should only be removed once the tag is no longer relevant to the game (i.e. game is fully released, not under active development). The tag should also be updated when the state of the game has changed (ex. game has moved from development/Early Access to release state).

Arguments

  • state or 1 - prototype, dev, postdev, unknown, unplayable.
    Certain obsolete values are also available but not required to be used. Visually these all work the same as dev, but adds the article to different categories:
    1. predev
    2. prealpha
    3. alpha
    4. beta
  • ref - Used only for unknown and unplayable states only.
