Cassette Beasts releases on iOS, Android release pulled pending approval for new patch

Cassette Beasts, the retro creature-collecting RPG, has launched on iOS, but its Android release has been unexpectedly delayed. Developer Bytten Studio reports that the last-minute postponement is due to Google Play approval issues for a necessary patch addressing pre-release problems.

iOS users can now enjoy the game, but Android users will have to wait. The delay is unfortunate, especially considering the game's anticipated launch and blend of classic creature-collecting, battling, and exploration. Bytten Studio assures players that the Android version will return to the Google Play store as soon as the patch is approved.

Unexpected Delays

Game launches occasionally encounter unforeseen setbacks. In this instance, the required last-minute patch is facing delays in Google Play's approval process. This highlights the potential challenges of relying on a single app store for distribution. The use of alternative app stores might have offered a quicker release path, but it remains to be seen if this will influence future launches. The delay is expected to be short, with a return to the Google Play store anticipated within days.
