Not that you’re missing much from what we gather about the latest D&D interactive entertainment experience, but if you’re a PS3 owner and were really looking forward to someone actually sticking to a date when it comes to the PSN outage, we’re sorry to disappoint, Daggerdale will not be making the promised May 31 date.
Although the bright side is that apparently this doesn’t necessarily signal a continuation of the PS Store outage, just that the game will be pushed back to accommodate all the releases that didn’t make it to the Store before lights out.
Understanding the Delay
“Our recent tweet was not intended to speak to Sony’s service coming back online or being delayed, but to inform our fans that we expect Daggerdale to be placed in PSN’s publishing queue behind other titles that were meant to launch during the service outage and that it might not hit the May 31 date,” Atari said in a statement to Joystiq.
This delay is particularly frustrating for fans who have been eagerly awaiting the release of Daggerdale. The game, which promises an immersive Dungeons & Dragons experience, has generated significant anticipation. However, the PSN outage has caused a backlog of game releases, and Daggerdale is just one of many titles affected.
The Impact of the PSN Outage
The PSN outage has had a widespread impact on the gaming community. Many developers and publishers have had to adjust their release schedules, causing delays and frustration among gamers. The outage, which lasted several weeks, was a result of a security breach that compromised user data, leading Sony to take the network offline to address the issue.
For PS3 owners, this meant not only a lack of access to online gaming but also delays in new game releases. Titles that were scheduled to launch during the outage have been pushed back, creating a bottleneck in the release schedule. This has affected not only Daggerdale but also other highly anticipated games.
Despite the delay, there is a silver lining. The PSN outage has forced developers to ensure that their games are polished and ready for release. This means that when Daggerdale finally does become available, it will likely be a more refined and enjoyable experience for players.
In the meantime, fans can look forward to other upcoming releases and updates from Atari. The company has been actively engaging with its community through social media, providing updates and addressing concerns. This level of communication helps to maintain a positive relationship with fans, even in the face of delays.
