Wanting to play endless dungeon next month? Unfortunately, you will have to wait half a year more to play the roguelite twin-stick shooter, because Amplitude Studios and Sega have delayed its release date to October 19. It was previously scheduled to debut in 2022, but the developer has finally announced a release date of May 18, 2023 for PC (Steam and Epic), Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5. In a post announcing their decision, the team said they think it’s important to spend more time working on the game after all the feedback they received in all their OpenDev sessions. They also promised to announce a release date for the Nintendo Switch at a later date.
In addition to fixing the bugs and issues that the testers discovered, the developers plan to use the extra time to improve some of the key elements of the game. They’re working on making player progression feel less random and more organic, and they’re tweaking the economy so that all three resources—namely science, food, and industry—feel important to the game. “The scarcity of resources is important so that your decision of what to invest in feels impactful,” they explained. They are also incorporating smaller changes, such as differentiating districts more from each other and improving certain aspects of the game’s multiplayer mode.
If you decide to wait rather than cancel your pre-order, you can get three additional free skins for Comrade, Fassie, and Shroom. They will also be available at no additional cost to early purchasers after the game’s launch for a limited time. Please note that from the endless dungeon release has been delayed, its planned closed beta, which you’ll be able to access if you purchase the Last Wish Edition, will also be pushed back to September.
