Microïds Announces Syberia 3 Release Date Delayed - 10/05/16 05:24 PM

InitialIy scheduled to be launched on December 1, 2016, Syberia 3 is postponed to Q1 2017

Quote:
Paris, October 5, 2016 – Upon capturing the enthusiasm of many players, the Syberia saga is back for an even more ambitious third opus. Every day, Kate Walker’s new adventure is polished by the work provided by the development teams to ensure without a doubt that the fans expectation will be rewarded. However, for the reasons explained below, Microïds had to make the difficult choice to postpone the game's release to Q1 2017.

Syberia 3 is the third opus of a mythical adventure game saga fueled by a rich universe and a strong identity. After the unprecedented excitement we have seen for this game, we decided to bring even more depth to Kate Walker’s new adventure. "Said Elliot Grassiano, Vice President of Microïds. "We are aware that fans around the world are eager to embody Kate Walker again but we need additional time to provide them with an adventure that can live up to their expectations in this fascinating universe created by Benoit Sokal.”


I am obviously disappointed that Syberia 3 is delayed because we would like to release our games as soon as the storyline is written, but I'm also relieved that Microïds has taken the decision to postpone the game's launch because it is essential to offer players the best gaming experience possible. We decided to add even more cinematics to this new fiction, more optional narrative sequences as well as new languages for the voice-over, which represents considerable work for teams. "Said Benoit Sokal, founder and creative director of the Syberia saga.

Impersonating Kate Walker, players will benefit from a brand new way to freely explore striking landscapes and circumvent their mysteries and puzzles in ways they have not experienced before.

The story begins when Kate is found left for dead on a shore by the Youkol tribe, a nomadic people caring for their snow ostriches during migration. Trapped, prisoners in the city of Valsembor, they will have to find together a way to continue their journey in a chase against their enemies and unexpected challenges. While at the same time, Kate’s past is catching up with her…


Syberia 3 will be available in Q1 2017 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC and Mac. It will be fully dubbed in French, Russian, Polish and German with subtitles in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Russian, Polish, Czech, Korean, Brazilian Portuguese, simplified and traditional Chinese. The original soundtrack is composed by Inon Zur (Fallout 4, Dragon Age, Prince of Persia), who has already scored Syberia 2



Happy Gaming!

Thanks for letting us know, Ana. Still hoping to see Blackenrock by the end of the year, but if not, I can continue to replay my older games. wave

Yes, I did indeed sigh when I got the announcement, but I greatly appreciate the care they are taking in making sure it's up to the standards we have come to expect from a Syberia game. It must be a lot of pressure to release a game in that series knowing how much the first ones were loved.

It doesn't surprise me at all that Syberia 3 got delayed.
And it won't surprise me if it gets delayed again.
If it's delayed because they want to get all the bugs out, that's a good thing.

Marian got it right...while disappointing, gives us time to replay and refresh our memories. The first one is just utterly charming.
