More On: The Swapper

Sony fans eager to play Facepalm Games' haunting scifi clone epic, The Swapper, will unfortunately have to wait a little longer. Curve Studios, the developer porting the game, just announced that the game's PSN release has been delayed from late June to August 5th in America and 6th in Europe. Disappointing, yes, but it's better to wait a month than have something slow and buggy. That said, I'll probably just get around to buying it on Steam sooner than August.

 
 

Curve Digital Announces New Release Date for PlayStation Version of The Swapper



LONDON ?? 18.06.2014 ?? Curve Digital has announced today that the PlayStation version of the award-winning puzzle game, The Swapper, will now be released on August 5th in North America and August 6th in Europe. The original planned release date for the game was June 24th.

The games release has been pushed back to allow developer of the PlayStation versions, Curve Studios, extra time to polish the Vita and PS3 versions of the game, which have required extra optimisation.

??The Swapper is our first indie title to really push the limits of the PlayStation 3 and Vita,?? said Curve Digital Managing Director Jason Perkins. ??We've been able to really throw the power of the PS4 at the game, but we also want to ensure that when the game comes out, it looks great and runs well at 30 FPS on hardware that, in the case of the PlayStation 3, is over seven years old.??

The Swapper will be available as a Cross-Buy title on all three PlayStation platforms at launch, and players will be able to preorder the game at a discount from early July.
