One of the titles with the greatest international projection in Europe is The Waylanders. The Galician role-playing title is directed by Gato Salvaje, a studio based in A Coruña and we can find it in Early Access format both in Steam like in GOG.
With several years of development behind them, the team has made the decision to postpone the arrival of the final version. Scheduled for November 16 of this year, finally The Waylanders will be finally released on February 2, 2022. This is how Fernando Prieto, co-founder of Gato Salvaje, explained this decision:
Dear players,
We have made the decision to delay the release of The Waylanders to February 2, 2022.
Releasing The Waylanders this month would not provide the quality experience that our fans deserve. While we’ve worked hard to get our patrons and Early Access players to get the RPG they were expecting before the holiday break, we’ve done an internal analysis and concluded that our team needs a little more time to polish the game. Developing the game during the Covid era has been challenging for many studios, including ours, and releasing The Waylanders in a hurry after 4 years of development would not appeal to anyone.
As has happened in many cases over the past two years, the coronavirus has greatly affected the development of games. All in all, users will not be left without new content to try until launch, as new updates are on the way.
There will be improvements for areas such as the Cave of Eternity or the Fomore World, as well as full translation for missions related to the Celtic Era. On the other hand, the advanced classes receive a new trailer, showing us how we can branch out with more options our main choice of basic class in The Waylanders.
