Outriders Delayed To April, Free Demo Launching In February
Shooter/RPG Outriders has been delayed to April 1, nearly two months after its February 2 release date. Developer People Can Fly tempered the bad news by announcing that a free demo will be available on February 25 to give eager players a big taste of what’s in store.
In a message posted on the game’s Twitter account, People Can Fly explains it plans to spend the extra development time “fine tuning the game and focusing on delivering a fantastic play experience at launch.”
For those bummed out about the wait, the February demo gives players the chance to play Outriders’ opening hours and all four classes (Trickster, Pyromancer, Technomancer, and Devastator) will be available. The demo can be experienced solo or with up to three players in co-op, and your progress and character can be transferred to the full release; the chef’s kiss of any demo. As People Can Fly puts it:
