‘Agony’ Delayed from March Release

Published

on

Originally slated to come out on March 30th, Madmind Studio’s Agony has unfortunately been delayed. This comes after the previous delay last year when the team secured an additional publisher for Xbox One and PlayStation 4. This new delay was announced on the game’s Kickstarter page.

“As you all have been curious about Agony we do have some information for you. Sadly we have to inform you that March 30th will not be the release date,” writes Madmind Studio. “Why is this? -With Agony being released across PS4, PC and Xbox we are facing last steps including polishing to support every player- no matter which platform – with the best possible experience. We wish this could have been done faster but ask for your patience to ensure you get the experience you deserver [sic] when Agony is released.”

So, as with the previous delay, it’s an understandable polishing. The good news, however, is that the team has also secured age ratings for the game (a necessary component for a retail release), as well as a list of supported languages. While it’s certainly a bummer that March will end on without us taking a trip to Hell, at least Hell awaits in the future.

Clive Barker

We told you earlier this month that horror legend Clive Barker is leaving the convention scene behind to focus entirely on his writing, with various upcoming projects in the works.

A series of final appearances from Barker will begin at Days of the Dead Chicago this month, and we’ve learned Barker will also be coming to Monster Mania in New Jersey.

Clive Barker will be signing at Monster Mania 59 in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, which runs from August 2 – August 4, 2024. Stay tuned for more info from the convention.

Barker’s official statement earlier this month explained, “… it’s time to focus entirely on writing. I’m not stopping public events because I’ve lost delight in meeting you all over the years. I’m as passionate as ever about sharing my imagination with readers and moviegoers around the world. In the very room where I’m writing these words, I have the manuscripts for a very large number of projects (Thirty-one of them), some very close to completion, others still telling themselves. There are some wild projects in this collection of works, whether close to finished or done. There are also stories that you all knew I would be finishing.”

“Abarat IV and V are amongst the books at my feet,” he continued. “So is the Third and final book of The Art and the sequel to The Thief of Always. There are also return visits to characters and mythologies you may have thought I would never return to.

“I hope I am still able to surprise you in the decades ahead.”
