Release Date Change & Our Sincere Apologies

Yandere Virus · published 16 days ago

All eventsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Hello, this is the developer of Yandere Virus.

First of all, I sincerely apologize to everyone who has been waiting for the release. I'm sorry to have to share this disappointing news.

We have decided to delay the release of Yandere Virus by two weeks, from September 8 to September 21.

All of the game's content is now complete, and we are currently working on the final stages of multiplayer stabilization.

We have been fixing issues discovered through several rounds of multiplayer testing. However, considering the conditions we may face at launch, with many players playing at the same time, we have decided that we need more time for additional testing and stabilization.

Keeping our promised release date is important, but since co-op multiplayer is at the heart of Yandere Virus, we believe it is even more important to make sure that you can enjoy the game with your friends as smoothly and reliably as possible from day one.

More than anything, we are truly sorry to ask those of you who have already been waiting for the game to wait a little longer.

As the developer, I take the fact that we are unable to keep our promised release date very seriously. Knowing how many of you are looking forward to the game made this a very difficult decision, but I believe spending these extra two weeks testing and fixing issues is the right choice rather than rushing the game out before the multiplayer experience is ready.

The new release date is September 21, 2026.

These additional two weeks will not be used to add new content. We will focus entirely on multiplayer testing, stabilization, and bug fixes.

Once again, I sincerely apologize to everyone who has been waiting for the game.

We will make the most of this extra time and do everything we can to deliver a more stable experience.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Developer of Yandere Virus
