Stray Gods: The Role-Playing Musical, initially scheduled for release on August 3, has been pushed back to August 10. Publisher Humble Games and developer Summerfall Studios announced the delay in order to ensure performance parity across all platforms and to give players the opportunity to focus on the highly anticipated Baldur’s Gate 3 by Larian Studios.

Statement from Humble Games and Summerfall Studios

“We’re so excited – Stray Gods is under a month away! We’re counting the days and we know you are too, but we need to make a slight adjustment to the calendar. We’re moving our launch date to August 10th, 2023. We want everyone to have ample space to check out Stray Gods when it launches. Baldur’s Gate 3 is hotly anticipated (by us, too!) and we want to give our fans room to celebrate Stray Gods. We also want everyone to be able to play on their preferred device at launch. This is a huge undertaking for any team, let alone an indie shipping its first title. This extra week allows us to have performance parity as close as possible – across every platform. We’re so excited to share Stray Gods with you and we hope you’ll join us on August 10th to play and celebrate this game we’ve poured so much love into!”

Stray Gods is a unique hand-illustrated role-playing musical that offers players the opportunity to choose lines in songs, much like selecting dialogue in traditional RPGs. The game features an incredible soundtrack composed by Grammy-nominated composer Austin Wintory (Journey, The Pathless, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate), Tripod, and Montaigne.

The talented voice cast includes well-known names such as Troy Baker, Ashley Johnson, Rahul Kohli, Janina Gavankar, Felicia Day, and more. Laura Bailey voices the lead character, Grace, a college dropout in a modern fantasy world who is bestowed with the power of a Muse. Using this newfound ability, Grace embarks on a quest to uncover the truth behind her predecessor’s death before time runs out.

Stray Gods: The Role-Playing Musical will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC on August 10, 2023.
