Outbound has been delayed by a few weeks as Square Glade Games has stated it has hit an issue that needs to be resolved, and it won’t be fixed by the original planned release date of April 23rd. The precise nature of the issue has not been confirmed by the development team, but the devs have posted a statement about the delay. The new release date for Outbound is May 14th.
Square Glad Games said, “We’ve had to make the difficult decision to delay Outbound to May 14th. Late in the process, an issue has been identified that could negatively impact your enjoyment of the game. Unfortunately, there wasn’t enough time to still guarantee a release across all platforms on the originally planned date. Please be assured that our team has worked extremely hard to address this and did everything possible to stay on schedule. We know that you may be disappointed by this news, but appreciate your understanding and believe the delay will result in a more polished, bug-free experience. As a small thank-you for your patience, we’ll be keeping the free demo available for longer until May 12th.
 Let’s hit the road on May 14th!”
In Outbound, you explore a cosy near utopian world in your camper, which can be upgraded with different items to make the journey as comfortable as possible. You will be able to adopt a pet to join you on your road trip, and Outbound also supports four player co-op so you can go on a road trip with others. Outbound will be released on PC, PS5, Xbox Series XS, Switch and Switch 2.
