Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs delayed

The next entry in the Amnesia series has been delayed. Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs was originally to be released this summer, however…well, the game just isn’t ready yet.

User jens over at the Frictional Games forum offered this update to fans:

We are working away as fast as we can, it has to take the time it takes. We have no rush and a certain well-known game developer said “a delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad.” We are optimizing, tweaking and in general putting the FG expertise to good use. TCR keeps putting in work as well. There are companies working on the translations. The porting guys are porting away. Deals are being made. Things are prepared for launching the game through more online stores than any other FG game before. In general occupied with all things related. We know we will not make Q2, we also know when the game will be ready for launch. We have not set the exact day yet. You can however make good use of the weather outside this summer and look forward to gaming with the piggies as the summer comes to an end.

While the delay is a little disappointing, a release is still in sight. The end of summer isn’t that long of a wait.
