Individual street dates above are known context from Inven’s ceremony package — this story is the Future Division win list, not a rehash of already-forged hands-on packages (FF7 Revelation, Belmont’s Curse, Gundam Rogue Orbit, Ascendance, etc.). Soft note: Pokémon Pokopia took the separate Grand Award earlier (already covered Sep 15/16) — distinct from today’s Future Division slate.
As-of: 2026-09-20 morning ~8:25 AM CT (America/Chicago). Ceremony Sep 20 Hall 1 Makuhari, vote/cutoff framing, and the 10 named winners + sample dates verified against Inven Global. Do not re-forge individual prior packages.
