Title: The Day Before Zombie Survival MMO Faces Delay and Uncertainty
Gone, but not forgotten by Khayl Adam
In the world of gaming, anticipation and excitement can quickly turn into disappointment and skepticism. This is precisely what happened with The Day Before, a zombie survival massively multiplayer online game (MMO) that initially garnered attention and drew comparisons to popular titles like The Last of Us and The Division. However, recent developments have left fans uncertain about the game’s future.
The first blow came with a lackluster gameplay showing, which failed to live up to the initial buzz surrounding the game. Additionally, developer Fntastic encountered a bizarre trademark dispute, resulting in a significant delay and even raising doubts about the game’s authenticity. Fntastic faced accusations that The Day Before wasn’t a real game.
Despite this setback, a new trailer for The Day Before has emerged, offering a glimpse into improved gameplay. However, the trailer comes with disappointing news for PC gamers, announcing a delay in the game’s release. Instead of the expected full 1.0 release on December 7th, The Day Before will now be launched into Early Access.
This delay also impacts PlayStation players, as the release for the console is now indefinitely postponed until the Early Access period concludes. Fntastic estimates the Early Access period to last around 6-8 months, although this timeline could change. It’s a frustrating setback for gamers eager to dive into the apocalyptic world of The Day Before.
Despite these hurdles, Fntastic remains optimistic about the game’s future. They recently released an official announcement regarding the delays but did not provide specific reasons for the change in the release schedule.
As the gaming community eagerly awaits The Day Before’s revamped release, opinions remain divided. Some fans still hold onto hope, while others express skepticism due to the troubled history of the game’s development. Many gamers have taken to the comments section to express their thoughts on the latest gameplay trailer and to share their opinions on the game’s future.
The Day Before’s developers have much work ahead to prove themselves and ensure that the game lives up to its initial promise. The upcoming months will be crucial for Fntastic as they work towards the highly-anticipated release of The Day Before.
