THQ Nordic and developer Pieces Interactive announced today that the release date for the Alone in the Dark reboot has been rescheduled from its initially planned date of January 16, 2024, to March 20.
According to the publisher, the decision to delay the game was influenced by the approaching holidays, and the developer aimed to prevent potential crunches over the Christmas holidays.
Find below the official statement of THQ Nordic in regards to the Alone in the Dark reboot delay:
The year is coming to an end, and the Christmas Holidays are upon us. However, until today, it didn’t seem that way for Pieces Interactive, the team developing our upcoming survival horror game, Alone in the Dark. With our initially planned release date in January 2024, the Christmas season would have been filled with stress and anything but a jolly time for them.
Therefore, THQ Nordic and Pieces Interactive have decided to give Alone in the Dark a new release date: March 20th, 2024.
The well-being of the teams is a top priority, and both companies want to avoid any potential crunch over the Christmas holidays. Furthermore, THQ Nordic and Pieces Interactive want to ensure that the game not only meets but exceeds the expectations of the community, especially with the outstanding performances of Hollywood stars David and Jodie as the main protagonists.
We understand that many people are eagerly awaiting the release, but your patience will be rewarded. We are thrilled to scare the living daylights out of you on March 20, 2024!
Alone in the Dark reboot will be available for PS5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam and GOG. Stay tuned for our review coverage next year!
