Latest Delay Due to Certification Issues
In a tweet from Frictional Games, the company stated that the latest delay is due to certification issues. This may be related to the process of obtaining approval from the console manufacturers for release on their platforms. The delay pushes the release date back to June 6th, with a free demo to be available on Steam on May 22nd.
New Features and Setting for Amnesia Series
Amnesia: The Bunker marks the first game in the series to give players access to a weapon, which balances the traditional Amnesia gameplay with new features. The game also features a WWI setting and a semi-open world, which are experimental new ideas for the series.
