The highly anticipated Wasteland 3, the third installment of the post-apocalyptic RPG series, has been delayed due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. The game was originally slated for a May 19th release, but developer inXile Entertainment has announced that the game will now be released on August 28th.
The delay was announced on the official Wasteland 3 Twitter account, with the developers citing the current global situation as the reason for the delay. The statement reads, “We know many of you have been eagerly awaiting the release of Wasteland 3, and we’re sorry to announce that the game’s release date has been pushed back to August 28th. This decision was not taken lightly, but we feel it is necessary in order to ensure the game is the best it can be.”
The game was originally announced in 2016 and was funded through a successful Kickstarter campaign. It is set in the frozen wastes of Colorado and follows the story of the Desert Rangers, a group of survivors trying to rebuild civilization in the wake of a nuclear war.
The game will feature a deep and engaging story, as well as a variety of tactical combat options. Players will be able to customize their characters and build relationships with the various factions in the game. The game will also feature a co-op mode, allowing players to team up with a friend and explore the world together.
The delay of Wasteland 3 is a disappointment for fans of the series, but it is understandable given the current global situation. The developers have promised that the extra time will be used to make sure the game is the best it can be, and we look forward to exploring the frozen wastes of Colorado when the game is finally released.
