Distant Worlds 2: this time, your space spreadsheet has a 3D engine!

Dev Diary #5:

Is this coming out this year?

Short answer: no one knows. Or if they do, they’re under an NDA (assuming even the testers would know). ;)

I doubt it. If it is, I’d think we’ll have a release date announcement soon.

That was their goal, but I imagine it will be sometime next year.

No one can say they didn’t see that coming.

I’ll gladly take a distant release date over none.

True enough, and here’s hoping it’s an ETA that sticks. I’m very much looking forward to this one as I couldn’t get DWU to work (old eyes could not make out UI/Text).

My heart sank as I originally read that as Q4 2022!

I’ll think we’ll see William Shatner actually fly into space before we see this game. Hey, wait a minute…

lol when I see Q1 2022 I really see that as a sci fi date.

Look ill wait for this one to cook.

Wow legible fonts!

Too soon man, too soon, you’ll jinx it.

Noooo, the spring is already just stupidly packed with game releases I’m looking forward to. Im going to need to take a sabbatical or something!

Nice to see an official release date. Odd they don’t bother updating the steam store to reflect it.

Also, do people actually spend 4 and a half hours of their lives watching these? Surely not.
