The release date for Wasteland 2 will be announced before the end of the month, developer inXile Entertainment has stated in an update to the RPG’s Kickstarter backers.
The same post outlined the state of the game’s beta, which is nearing the end of the company’s three-month plan devised back in February as a final measure for the game before its release.
The studio states that because it is now focusing on dealing with bugs, most of its developers have started to work on Torment: Tides of Numenera instead as their contributions will no longer be required for Wasteland 2.
“We're getting closer every day, and we intend to announce the official release date sometime this month,” reads the post.
“At this stage of the project some portions of the game require less manpower than they did a few months ago, which is all part of our plan for moving people to Torment: Tides of Numenera when their work on Wasteland 2 is simply done. One of those things we're slowly wrapping up is writing, which at this stage is really just tweaks or minor NPCs and encounters added.”
InXile is also working on finalizing the game’s writing, with changes to the game’s script and the addition of minor NPCs and encounters.
