Steel Seed Release Delayed: Developer Reveals New PC Specifications

Delay Announced for Steel Seed: New Release Date Revealed

ESDigital Games, in collaboration with developer Storm in a Teacup, has confirmed a delay in the launch of the highly anticipated stealth action-adventure game, Steel Seed. Initially set to launch on April 10, the release is now scheduled for April 22.

Official Statement from ESDigital Games

Ilia Svanidze, Head of Marketing at ESDigital Games, expressed gratitude for the community’s enthusiasm in a recent statement:

“Since the game’s announcement, your excitement has been truly inspiring, and we know how much you’ve been looking forward to a deep dive into a dark sci-fi future on all platforms. That’s why we want to be completely open with you: We encountered some technical hurdles related to platform adaptation when running our platform certification tests. Rather than rushing the console release and risking a potentially substandard console user experience that requires swift patching, we have made the difficult but necessary decision to delay the launch. Our goal is to ensure that all players, regardless of platform, enjoy a polished and seamless experience. We are committed to delivering the best possible experience for our players. This additional time will allow us to optimize and polish all versions for launch so they meet the standard we know you deserve.”
