A continuation of unexpected setbacks and challenges have pushed release back to approximately late August.
As is stands currently, BARK is nearing completion of the main campaign. Although it had initially been planned to release in early June, conceptual and gameplay related changes, polish, and other crucial development processes led to the inevitable setback of release. This setback, however, was only able to result in the majority of the main campaign's completion. In other words, there is still a lot of work left before the game is ready to release.
Just because more content is being added to the game though, does not mean the game will differ from what is being showcased. The current features and screenshots provided on the game's page(s) are an accurate representation of the final product, and only minimal changes are likely to be seen moving forward.
So why is the release of BARK being pushed back again?
The main campaign of the game is in its final stages. With exclusion of these final steps, it is polished and ready for release. This being said, all extras have yet to be created. The inclusion of extra gameplay outside of the main campaign was a recent addition to the development checklist, but will result in a more fulfilling and rewarding experience overall.
- Features and screenshots are confirmed to officially reflect the final product
- Extra gameplay features outside of the main campaign have been confirmed
- Release date expectancy has been changed to Late August
