Warhammer 40k: Inquisitor – Martyr delayed to June

NeocoreGames has delayed WH40K: Inquisitor – Martyr to June, but it will work over 90 hours a week to make sure it does’t see another delay.

In a press release today, NeocoreGames announced it had pushed the date for WH40K: Inquisitor – Martyr to June 5.

The studio said the delay would provide the team with more time to “ensure the action-RPG is a truly great experience.”

Apparently, some technical issues were solved a bit late on one of the console platforms, per the studio.

“Therefore the release candidate version couldn’t be sent to manufacturing in time,” reads the statement. “We’d like to release the game – in agreement with our console publisher Bigben Interactive and our licensor Games Workshop – on all three platforms at the same time.

“In a nutshell: we have somewhat overestimated our capacity for releasing the game simultaneously on three platforms.”

Now, about that 90+ hour work week. Please tell us that was a joke on your part, NeocoreGames.

According to a post from the studio on the game’s Steam page, the development team will “do one big beta build update for Steam” set for availability on May 21 (thanks, PCgamesN).

“With the three extra weeks, we’ll now have the time to do this and the extra feedback will help us immensely to balance and fine-tune the game.

“Again, sorry for this as we kindly ask for your further patience and hopefully it won’t be a deal breaker for any of you. In return, we promise we’ll push this extra three weeks in 90+ hours per week so it’ll be very-very useful for Martyr.”

Seriously, don’t work 90+ hours a week. Don’t do it. That’s not emotionally, mentally, or physically healthy. Get the job done, but don’t do it at the sake of your health, folks.

Announced in July 2015, Warhammer 40K: Inquisitor – Martyr is an isometric action-RPG sandbox, and Neocore promises it will continue to evolve with a “continuous flow of content” as well as years of entertainment value. And blood. Lots of blood.

Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor – Martyr will be made available on Mac, PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
