Project Athia Release Date Pegged for Early 2022

Posted on Tuesday 12th January 2021 at 19:40 by Rangers51

Sony put on their video presser for the 2021 Consumer Electronics Show yesterday, which I semi-watched for my own reasons at the time, but here's one thing that Kotaku caught that I definitely missed: as part of a sizzle roll of upcoming PlayStation 5 games, Square Enix' biggest mystery title got a release window. That window is currently "January 2022."

Of course, this was tossed out in fine print at the end of the visuals, and it's definitely a target more so than a locked-in date, but it's good to see it nonetheless to see Squenix getting some games ready to go for the new generation of consoles. Now, in this case, it's really just one of the new gen, because Athia has a two-year exclusivity contract; this release date puts the game on Xbox no sooner than 2024.

	A brief update to this - when Sony put this video onto their YouTube channel, the release dates for all the games were removed from the output. It's not clear if this was just an inadvertent leak or they were removing inaccurate information or both, but at the moment we can't assume this release date any further.
