Ubisoft announced that it has tentatively postponed the release of The Settlers, which was announced on March 17, with less than two weeks to go. The game was opened for pre-order in mid-January, while the closed beta process also began. With the release date so close, it was extremely unpleasant to see a reprieve.
It was stated that the reason for the postponement was the feedback received by the closed beta. “When we examined the feedback from the players, we realized that the quality did not fully reflect the team’s vision. That’s why we decided to postpone the game to a later date. We will use this time to further improve the game and improve the quality. We will inform you in time,” said The Settlers team.
The game, which would use the Snowdrop game engine, would feature the best of previous The Settlers games. Or rather, that was the team’s claim. So the state of the game they thought was ready was way below expectations.
We can play the first The Settlers on this story and do some nostalgia 🙂
