Good news! Oh, wait. No. Bad news. Devolver Digital has announced the delay of three games that were slated for 2024. The games are Stick It to the Stickman, Baby Steps, and Skate Story. They’re now all coming in 2025. Maybe.
I feel like patting myself on the back, because when the Devolver Delayed Awards 2024 stream was announced, those are the games I guessed. But then I realized that I guessed them by going into Steam, looking at what games Devolver still has slated for 2024, and listing them off. There was absolutely no guesswork there, so I should probably have a little modesty.
However, I’d like to point out that Stick It to the Stickman and Skate Story are both returning champions from the Devolver Delayed 2023 stream. At this point, they might as well keep delaying them for the shower of accolades it nets them every year.
I don’t really have a horse in this race. I’m rarely disappointed by delays these days because I’ve always got too much to play, both at the present and in the future. And the only game of the three delayed I’m really all that interested in is Skate Story. That’s because I like Skate. and this game is clearly trying to do something neat with the formula. However, it’s not, like, at the top of my priorities. If it’s at the top of your priorities: bummer.
Stick It to the Stickman, Baby Steps, and Skate Story are all set to release sometime in 2025. You can check out the Devolver Delayed stream over here.
