When we think about the release period for any Realism post, we really want to get it out as soon as possible so that everybody can read and experience it. A lot of times what we try to tackle takes a lot longer than anticipated. So that’s why many times the writing struggle there is a delay. The people around us keep telling us: ‘This is the last one. You really need to shape up.’
One reason there could be a delay is that the direction just hasn’t been decided, which is probably the worst kind of delay. And the other is that the direction has been decided but putting that into reality—implementing that—is taking time. So it might have taken us six months to do this much. It’ll take us a year to do that much.
We previously announced that we were aiming for a summer 2024 release for this post. However, we have decided to extend our development time a bit and change the release to winter 2024. For those of you who have been looking forward to a release this year, we apologise.
As previously announced, the adventure in this sequel will take place not just in haven but also in the actual real world. However, the expanded world goes beyond that, and there will be an even wider variety of features you can enjoy including new encounters and new ultra realistic gameplay elements
