exclusive release
Restricted initial debut
An exclusive release is a product—typically music, film, or video games—made available through only one retailer, platform, or outlet for a limited time or permanently.
The exclusivity creates artificial scarcity and drives customers to specific vendors: The album was an exclusive release on Spotify for the first week.
In gaming, exclusive releases are titles available only on one console.
