The sport was initially revealed as a part of Xbox’s summer time showcase again in 2021, and between then and now, it was delayed a number of occasions, with Unhappy Cat popping again up halfway by final yr to substantiate Changed was nonetheless in improvement.
Following that, Changed received itself a March launch date in December, however evidently, the devs now really feel they can not uphold that launch date with out critically compromising on the sport’s high quality.
On condition that it is taken this lengthy for Changed to reach, although, one other month or so looks as if it is not too huge an ask. This is hoping the brand new April date stays in place and would not get pushed again.
