Cozy Hit OUTBOUND Global Launch Moved to May 14
Today, Silver Lining Interactive and Square Glade Games are announcing a difficult decision: the global release of Outbound has been moved from its original April 23rd date to May 14th.
Following the incredible reception of the recent demo across all platforms, the development team has identified specific bumps on the virtual road that require immediate attention. To ensure a satisfying, "cozy" experience for every player-regardless of their platform of choice-the team has made the hard call to take a few extra weeks for final tuning and polish.
