Bad Ridge Games, the two-man development team behind the highly anticipated fantasy life-sim Mirthwood has announced that the game’s official release has been postponed to November 6th, 2024.
The decision to delay the launch comes from a desire to deliver a more complete and polished experience. “We want Mirthwood to be the best it can be on day one,” said Daron Otis at Bad Ridge Games.
“As a small, passionate team, we’ve worked tirelessly to create a world that players will love, but we felt there were still key areas, like performance optimization, localization, and some of the systems, that need to be fleshed out and more attention before launch.”
The extra development time will allow Bad Ridge Games to fine-tune the gameplay experience, improve overall performance, and ensure Mirthwood is fully localized for players worldwide. “Releasing a game that isn’t 100% ready isn’t something we want to do,” said Michael Brown, CEO of V Publishing.
“We’re committed to ensuring that when Mirthwood reaches players’ hands, it’s as polished as possible. The fans of the game are the most important thing, and making them happy is more of a priority than hitting a date, no matter what.”
