June 11: There’s been another update in the Hatch Tales saga, with the game experiencing another delay. Atooi now set a new release date of August 23, 2024.

Hatch Tales was most recently slated for March 28 of this year. However, it quietly slipped through the cracks. The title has been delayed multiple times and fans have been waiting for its launch for over six years, as it was previously funded in 2018 on Kickstarter.

In a statement, Atooi explained that it needs more time to finish up polishing. The studio noted how “many layers of iteration, polish, and bug squashing” are needed in order to provide “a high quality player experience”.
