"We are not proud enough to ignore the consequences"
so everyone in hades 2 is really hot huh?
In a week (month? year?) when a lot of people are feeling pretty pissed off about how certain gaming companies choose to explain their decisions to their audiences, here's a rarity – a statement on game delay that shows such humility, honesty and passion for the medium that it has gone extremely well.
The statement comes from Evil Empire, the Dead Cells developer who is now making a roguelike Prince of Persia game for Ubisoft – and the reason for the delay, Evil Empire humbly admits, is the surprise early access release of Hades 2, the long-awaited sequel to a roguelike classic, on May 6.
Rogue Prince of Persia had been released on May 14 (also in early access, on PC). In a subsequent statement, Evil Empire said the game would be released on May 27, adding: "But if [Hollow Knight] Silksong shadow drops in the next two weeks, we'll burn it all down!"
