With action-packed sequences infused with vintage and sci-fi themes, Replaced, a new IP from Sad Cat Studio, showed great promise. Their joy, however, was short-lived, as the game’s release date was postponed until 2023 due to an unforeseen turn of events. Many people were curious as to why the game’s release had been postponed, so we put together a list of the reasons why the developers were unable to meet their original deadline. This article will teach you more about Replaced and the realities of delay.
Players will experience firsthand what it’s like to live in a futuristic cyberpunk world while playing as REACH, an android trapped within a human body. The main objective of this game is to discover the secrets of the dystopian planet’s dark side.
In terms of gameplay, you get exactly what you see. We’ve seen enough of the game to know that, based on what we’ve seen so far in the announcement and reveal trailers, it looks fantastic for a sidescrolling platformer. The game’s dystopian cyberpunk vibe comes from the pixel graphic style, characters, and environments, as well as the dynamic lighting.
What platforms will Replaced be available on?
The platform on which the game will be released has been revealed by publisher Coatsink and developer Sad Cat Studios. The game is expected to debut on Game Pass and will be released on PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S, according to the official website and trailers. Unfortunately, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch owners will be unable to play this game because it is a Microsoft exclusive.
Release Date Has Been Postponed
Devs took to the game’s official Twitter account to explain more about the game’s development, which has been halted due to the ongoing situation in Ukraine, where the majority of the employees are stationed. The parent company, Thunderful, Coatsink, and Sad Cat, announced that the release date of Replaced has been pushed back from its original 2022 release date to prioritise the crew’s physical and emotional well-being. However, the game’s quality will not be harmed as a result of this decision, which is encouraging that despite the difficult situation, the creators are still enthusiastic about the project, and we can’t wait for it to be finished in 2023.
