In a recent developer update video, developer Inflexion Games CEO Aaryn Flynn announced that Nightingale\u2019s early access launch has been delayed from its previous \u201cfirst half of 2023\u201d to Fall 2020, as \u201cthe extra time will allow us to continue the progress we\u2019ve been making while not jeopardizing the health of our team.\u201d The game will launch on PC via Steam.<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter many discussions with our team, we\u2019ve come to the decision to move our early access launch date to Fall of this year. The reason for the release date shift is simple. The playtest process is working. The feedback we\u2019ve been receiving from players has been invaluable, and the extra time will allow us to continue the progress we\u2019ve been making while not jeopardizing the health of our team.\u201d<\/p>\n
