One of the games announced at the Game Awards ceremony last year was ARC Raiders. The game, which is described as a free co-op shooter, was announced to debut in 2022. However, the plans may not have worked out as expected, and there was news of a postponement from Embark Studios.
In the sharing made on the ARC Raiders Twitter account, it is stated that the game has been postponed to 2023, and now one of the classic statements of such postponement news is the sentence “We will use this additional time to improve the experience we will offer and to ensure that our game reaches its full potential.” They end the announcement by thanking their followers for their support.
Actually, I don’t think it was too surprising, we didn’t see much ARC Raiders news this year. This already brought to mind the possibility of postponing the game. We can say that it is as expected. Nevertheless, at least some game lovers have expressed their discomfort with this postponement news.
A discussion about this has already begun under the procrastination message. On the one hand, there’s an opinion that says, “We’re tired of postponements, don’t make promises you can’t fulfill, don’t announce a release schedule until your game is fully ready,” and on the other hand, it’s best to postpone it if the game isn’t fully ready.
What do you think, dear Gamewalkers, are the postponements really starting to get tiring now, or have the postponements become a situation that we accept after the disappointing games that come out early?
