On December 7, a big new survival MMO named “The Day Before” is set to launch, which many see as a kind of “The Division with zombies.” However, despite the developers providing exact release times, many fans are skeptical about whether the game actually exists.
When is the game supposed to launch?
- The Day Before is back on Steam after a long absence and a naming dispute. The game is supposed to launch worldwide for PC on December 7, 2023.
- In Germany, the launch is set for 7 PM. This will be an early access launch.
- Announced versions for PS5 and Xbox Series X are expected to arrive at a later date.
The Day Before provides exact release times on Steam – Faces much skepticism
How are the reactions to the announcement? Although the game mentions specific release times, many remain skeptical under the tweet about whether the survival MMO actually exists:
- A Twitter user says that The Day Before is the “most mysterious, least revealing game of all time.” He explains that even though a lot has been seen, it feels like nothing has been seen at all.
- Another Twitter user, whom many agree with, simply states: “I still don’t believe that the game is real.”
- A third user says: “One thing is clear, I will wait for the reviews before buying.”
Why is the game so controversial? The development history of The Day Before has been pure chaos until now, and the release now seems strange. The release was actually announced for November 11, and a beta was supposed to come beforehand.
But shortly before the original launch date, the release was postponed to December 7 and quickly declared an “early access launch.” There has been no talk of a beta anymore.
Many people are surely puzzled that The Day Before had completely disappeared from Steam for months because it did not have rights to its name. Moreover, it seems unbelievable to many that the studio can manage such a game, because for many, “The Division, but with zombies” looks too good to be true.
Even the launch trailer has been viewed with a lot of skepticism:
