Nine Dots Publishing and developer Nine Dots Studio have delayed<\/a> the Early Access launch of open-world action RPG Outward 2<\/em> from its previously planned July 7 release to 2027. It will be available for PC via Steam<\/a>, Epic Games Store<\/a>, and GOG<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Here is the full message from Nine Dots Studio CEO and creative director Guillaume Boucher-Vidal on the delay:<\/p>\n

\n

Hi everyone,<\/p>\n

I know that this might seem sudden as not that long ago we released a trailer inviting people to explore Aurai during summer, but the truth is that if we just stick to the plan stubbornly, we\u2019re delivering a product that might not satisfy your expectations. The last thing we want to do is disapp<\/a>oint fans of Outward<\/em> and there has been a lot of comments stating that they wish for the game<\/a> to spend more time in development before the launch. The point of a Beta is to listen to feedback, and so we will.<\/p>\n

Dropping this news<\/a> is especially painful knowing that some of our most dedicated players actually planned their summer break around the release date. It sucks for you and I personally apologize to everyone affected this way. However, it would be even worse if you ended up playing something over your vacation that you were not even happy with.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s hard to gauge what is the appropriate degree of stability expected for Early Access. The best we can do is take a hard, honest look at the game, and at our team, and ask: in a few weeks, will this be good enough to charge money for? Our aim is to have such a stark jump between this Beta and the Early Access launch that we earn the trust of our players. You were there for the first Outward<\/em> and that\u2019s why we were successful. We want you to be happy to be there again for Outward 2<\/em>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Thank you to everyone who participated in the Beta and our earlier playtests, who provided feedback, who shared our news, talked with us directly during streams or on Discord. I apologize that we couldn\u2019t give you the game you guys deserve on time. I guess that\u2019s the game development\u2019s equivalent of a defeat scenario: a setback and we come back better prepared.<\/p>\n
