Amnesia: The Bunker, the first-person horror title by Frictional Games, has been delayed once more till May 23, one week later than its previous date of May 16. The game had previously been delayed earlier this year due to “a slew of illnesses that has affected the development.”

Here’s the full statement on the delay:

Hey Horror fans! 😊

Exciting news – Amnesia: The Bunker will now be launching on May 23rd, 2023!

Our friends at Frictional Games have decided to delay the release by one week for a couple of reasons. First, they’re taking this extra time to add even more polish to the game, ensuring that everything is absolutely perfect for you when it launches. 🎮🌟

Second, they’re carefully timing the release to avoid a week packed with awesome titles from other talented studios. This thoughtful decision means you can fully immerse yourselves in each amazing gaming experience, without feeling overwhelmed.

We just can’t wait for you to experience this unique and thrilling take on the horror genre. Get ready to dive into the Bunker – it’s going to be incredible!

Stay excited, and see you soon!

While the delay gives more time for Frictional Games to add additional touches to Amnesia: The Bunker, it seems that it was also called to avoid games set to release during the same week. This includes titles such as The Outlast Trials’ Early Access on PC and Lego 2K Drive, with The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom also set to release a week prior.
