# Launch Readiness

`LaunchReadiness.V2` is the Section 138 catalog for proving that V2 is ready for
General Availability. It bridges the Unreal test harness, balance launch data,
go/no-go documentation, CI checks, and the TODO checklist.

## Drill Gates

The pre-launch drill gate requires a 60-day internal dogfood, all-mode and
all-platform coverage, closed beta metric targets, beta-blocking issue
remediation, platform cert signoff, and 5x network stress.

Closed beta metrics are concurrent peak, matchmaking time, rollback frame
distribution, crash rate, and anti-cheat false-positive rate.

## Go/No-Go Gates

`V2/docs/launch/go-no-go.md` is the launch decision record. It requires General
Availability approval, rollout approval, rollback approval, live monitoring
dashboards, and online-services canary analysis automation.

The required dashboards track crash rate, server health, matchmaking p99,
rollback frame distribution, and rage-quit rate.
