Publisher Humble Games and developer Summerfall Studios announced a delay for Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical, likely to avoid another big RPG launch.

The narrative-adventure and interactive musical game will forgo its previously planned August 3rd release for one a week later – on August 10th.

Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical will be available for PC (via Steam), Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, PS4, and PS5.

Baldur’s Gate III recently moved its release date up to August 3rd, so it’s easy to consider the delay was to get some breathing room from that big RPG.

Here’s the word from Summerfall Studios on the delay:

We’re so excited – Stray Gods is under a month away!

We’re counting the days and we know you are too, but we need to make a slight adjustment to the calendar. We’re moving our launch date to August 10th, 2023.

We want everyone to have ample space to check out Stray Gods when it launches. Baldur’s Gate 3 is hotly anticipated (by us, too!) and we want to give our fans room to celebrate Stray Gods.

We also want everyone to be able to play on their preferred device at launch. This is a huge undertaking for any team, let alone an indie shipping its first title. This extra week allows us to have performance parity as close as possible – across every platform.

We’re so excited to share Stray Gods with you and we hope you’ll join us on August 10th to play and celebrate this game we’ve poured so much love into!
