Cassette Beasts, the retro creature-collecting RPG, is now available on iOS, but its Android launch has been unexpectedly delayed.
Developer Bytten Studio announced a last-minute postponement due to unforeseen issues with Google Play's approval process for a crucial patch. This patch addresses problems discovered shortly before the intended release.
The Android version will return to the Google Play Store as quickly as possible. This setback is disappointing, especially given the game's anticipated launch and its blend of classic monster-catching, combat, and open-world exploration. Such eleventh-hour delays are unfortunately unpredictable. Hopefully, the necessary fixes will be implemented swiftly, allowing Android users to soon join the fun.
Unexpected Delays
Game launches sometimes encounter unforeseen complications. The current situation highlights the potential for delays caused by the Google Play approval process, particularly when urgent patches are required.
The recent prominence of alternative app stores raises the question of whether a broader launch across multiple platforms might have mitigated this issue by offering faster approval times. While this is a point for consideration, the delay is likely to be brief, with a return to the Google Play Store expected within days.
