Reburn, previously known as 4A Games Ukraine, has unexpectedly delayed the launch of La Quimera on its scheduled release day. This move comes right after the game received largely unfavorable reviews from early players and critics. The studio’s first title under the Reburn name has faced backlash, prompting what appears to be a hasty decision to hold back the game’s official debut without announcing a new date.
The announcement of this delay came through Reburn’s Discord server rather than formal channels like social media or a press release, leaving many questions about the studio’s response strategy. Fans and critics had high hopes for La Quimera, especially considering the team behind it, which includes talent from the acclaimed Metro series.
La Quimera was positioned as an ambitious sci-fi shooter with futuristic themes, fast-paced gunplay, and cooperative gameplay elements. Its narrative was crafted by Hollywood-level writers, raising expectations for a compelling story-driven experience.
This perspective echoes across various outlets now that review embargoes have lifted today. Reburn didn’t inform the PR firm distributing review copies in time about the last-minute delay decision, which suggests it was made hastily amid mounting criticism.
