In the latest financial report from Thunderful Group, which has already undergone several rounds of layoffs, an interesting detail about the highly anticipated game Replaced has come to light. The report reveals that the cyberpunk platformer, eagerly awaited by gamers worldwide, will now only reach its audience in 2026. This news marks yet another delay for the title, which has faced multiple postponements in the past.
The developers at Sad Cat Studios had previously announced a delay for Replaced to 2025, citing the game's development as a "unique challenge." Originally slated for a 2022 release, the game was subsequently pushed back to 2023 and then to the previous year. Despite these setbacks, the studio remains committed to delivering a project of the highest quality, fueled by the significant attention and high expectations from the gaming community.
Replaced was first unveiled in 2021 during Microsoft's presentation at the now-defunct E3 exhibition, generating considerable buzz and anticipation among fans of the genre.
Although Sad Cat Studios has not yet commented on this latest delay, they have not remained completely silent about the project. Throughout the development process, the studio has periodically shared updates with fans. For instance, this summer, they showcased exciting combat footage and introduced a new mini-game, keeping the community engaged and informed about the progress of Replaced.
