Developer 11 bit studios has announced another delay for The Alters, their long-awaited sci-fi psychological thriller game.

The Alters will forgo its previously planned early 2025 release for one sometime later in 2025. When the game does launch it’ll be on  Windows PC (via Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store), Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5.

Here’s a full message from the team on the delay:

Subject: Project Dolly – Schedule Update

Dear Mr. Dolski,

First and foremost, we would like to express our sincere appreciation for your persistent enthusiasm and unwavering dedication to Project Dolly—as reflected in the multitude of messages you have diligently sent to our offices in recent months. Your keen interest in the mission timeline has not gone unnoticed.

Following a comprehensive assessment of Project Dolly, we regret to inform you that your scheduled departure has been delayed beyond Q1 2025, with a revised launch window set for later in the year.

While we recognize that this may not be the update you were hoping for, this additional time is being dedicated to further refining mission parameters and ensuring that all essential systems meet Ally Corp’s uncompromising standards. Furthermore, it is also allowing us to integrate new enhancements into Project Dolly, ensuring that your eventual deployment is more exciting and rewarding than originally projected.

As you know, “almost ready” is not part of Ally Corp’s vocabulary. This additional time will allow us to ensure that every aspect of Project Dolly operates at peak efficiency, leading to an outcome that benefits both the organization and, of course, yourself. Your commitment to Project Dolly does not go unnoticed, and we look forward to providing you with a confirmed departure date in due course. Ally Corp Communications “Always your Ally”
