release date
When it debuts
A release date is when something becomes publicly available—a film's premiere, an album's debut, a product's launch, a prisoner's freedom.
Marketing builds anticipation around release dates: The release date was pushed back six months.
In criminal justice, a release date is when an inmate leaves custody: His release date is in March.
