Dragon Agewriter David Gaider’s next gameStray Gods: The Roleplaying Musicalhas been delayed a week to August 10th. Developers Summerfall Studios say the move gives them breathing room away from the “hotly anticipated”Baldur’s Gate 3, which is launching on Stray God’s old release date - August 3rd.

Extra leg space isn’t the only reason for the delay, though. “We also want everyone to be able to play on their preferred device at launch,” said the team, “This extra week allows us to have performance parity as close as possible, across every platform.” The studio calls that a “huge undertaking for any team,” but especially an indie studio releasing their first game.
Stray Gods is part choose-your-own-adventure game, part RPG, and all musical theatre. That means you’ll be making decisions, romancing a few Greek Gods, and solving a murder mainly through musical sing-songs. Those numbers can actually break into different variations depending on your choices, too, so Broadway fans can look forward to multiple playthroughs.
Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical will come out on August 10th for PC and consoles. You can find out more onSteam.
