Beta test prompt a delay

Tripwire Interactive released a post on X, admitting that the closed beta has missed the mark and wasn’t good. Fans’ feedback was really aggressive and it appears that the studio has taken this to the heart.

“We’ve realized we didn’t nail it,” they said. It’s a good thing that instead of rushing out to deliver a half-baked game with bugs, they are taking time to improve the game, its quality and performance by delaying it to late 2025.

With Embracer Group’s full backing, Tripwire is delving into a revamp. The beta identified issues such as a clunky UI, dim lighting, choppy performance, and poor weapon handling—core issues that require attention. They’re working on a new timeframe to address these issues, offering a more streamlined experience.

One confirmed post-launch tweak? You can finally choose your perk class and character separately—freedom at last! More adjustments are still to come, but Tripwire will keep us updated on the upcoming unveiling.
