In the latest financial report from Thunderful Group, which has already undergone several rounds of layoffs, an intriguing detail about the highly anticipated cyberpunk platformer, Replaced, has come to light. According to the document, fans will have to wait until 2026 to get their hands on the game, marking yet another delay in its release schedule.
The developers at Sad Cat Studios had previously announced that Replaced would be released in 2025, citing the game's development as a "unique challenge." However, the journey to this point has been fraught with delays. Initially slated for a 2022 release, the game was subsequently pushed back to 2023, and then to the previous year. Despite these setbacks, Sad Cat remains committed to delivering a project that meets the high expectations set by the attention and anticipation it has garnered from eager players.
Replaced was first unveiled to the public in 2021 during Microsoft's presentation at the now-defunct E3 exhibition, generating significant buzz and excitement within the gaming community.
While the developers have yet to comment on this latest delay, Sad Cat has not remained silent on the project. They continue to engage with their audience by sharing updates and glimpses into the game's development. This summer, for instance, they showcased combat footage and introduced a mini-game, keeping the community informed and involved in the ongoing development process.
