Today, developer Sad Cat Studios announced that their upcoming game REPLACED would be delayed to 2023. The main reasoning behind the delay is due to the ongoing war between Ukraine and Russia as the studio is located in Belarus.
REPLACED is a 2.5D sci-fi retro-futuristic action platformer where you play as R.E.A.C.H. – an artificial intelligence trapped in a human body against its own will. Explore the world, push your body’s limits in intense combat and learn what it’s like to be a living being. REPLACED combines cinematic platforming, pixel art and free-flow action combat with a deep, engaging dystopian story set in an alternative 1980s.
The game will be available in 2023 for Xbox Series S|X, Xbox One, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.
