[QUOTE="Admin, post: 60488, member: 1"] The Alone in the Dark reboot is delayed to January 16, 2024, publisher THQ Nordic has announced. The game was set to launch on October 25, 2023 but THQ Nordic pushed it back due to the busy Fall 2023 release calendar. “Our intention is to avoid competing with the wake of Alan's epic release and to evade the dazzling skyline of cities adorned by the graceful swings of Spider-Man. We aim to truly remain as Alone in the Dark as possible,” THQ Nordic said. The publisher continued: “To honor this, the spine-chilling horror game has been rescheduled to unveil its horrors on January 16th, 2024. This extension will serve a dual purpose: not only will it permit us to meticulously perfect the gaming experience, but it will also grant us the opportunity to fully immerse ourselves in the remarkable releases of October.” Alone in the Dark joins a number of 2023 games whose release dates were shifted to avoid this year's big-hitters.
