Promising Persona-Inspired RPG Demonschool Hit with Hefty Delay | Push Square
Demonschool is a promising tactical RPG we've had our eye on for a while, and we were eager to get to grips with it imminently on 13th September. Alas, a last-minute delay has been announced by developer Necrosoft Games, with the game given a tentative release window of Q1, 2025. We suppose we'll just have to console ourselves with Metaphor: ReFantazio, then.
Intriguingly, the delay is to give the devs time to add additional content to the game. Necrosoft says if the game were to release in September, it would've been a finished product. Still, you only get one release, and the team, with the support of publisher Ysbryd, realised Demonschool could be much more, and that's the game they want to release:
«You never want to delay a game, but Demonschool means a lot to us. We've put everything we have into this project, and as we got closer to release, we realised that meeting the 13th September deadline would necessarily mean a game with less content than we originally envisioned.»

Looks amazing though. And I a glad they delay instead of patch it later.
I don’t mind spacing it out until they’re happy, especially if they’re adding things. Give me a steady stream of RPGs and I’m a happy carrot.
I was really looking forward to this game, but I'm also happy to wait for a more complete experience. There's plenty of RPGs to sink my
