Why The Day Before Fans Should Be Prepared for a Last…

Summary

The Day Before, a highly anticipated zombie survival MMO, may face another delay announcement due to development issues and controversies surrounding the game's release.
The game has been embroiled in controversy, with one example being Fntastic's failure to trademark the game's name before announcing it led to a trademark dispute and the game being delisted from Steam, causing frustration among skeptics and fans.
With only a few weeks left until the scheduled launch, the lack of updates from Fntastic raises concerns about the game's release date, and fans should be prepared for potentially more disappointment or another delay.

There is now a little less than a month until The Day Before is set to finally make its debut. However, after series of development hiccups and rocky controversy, fans who are looking forward to the zombie survival MMO may want to brace themselves for another delay announcement. With recent rumors of The Day Before possibly changing its name to the title still being delisted from Steam, the future of Fntastic's anticipated title is currently stuck in murky waters.

Originally revealed in 2021, The Day Before immediately gained a lot of attention from the gaming community. For those who are familiar with the game's initial announcement, Fntastic was promising a lot with this title by claiming that it would be the most immersive zombie MMO to date. This led The Day Before to become the most wish listed game on Steam at one point, but the past two years since the announcement have been rife with controversy. Soon after the announcement, the game was accused of being fake and a scam, and this caused Fntastic to make statements defending the legitimacy of the project. However, The Day Before eventually became embroiled in a trademark dispute that caused the game to be delisted from Steam.

Silence Surrounding The Day Before Could Signal Bad News For Fans

Due to this trademark dispute, the team behind The Day Before made the decision to delay the game's release until November 10, 2023, after already having to delay the game twice before. Although this trademark dispute was tough news for many fans, some critics of the game were quick to question why Fntastic didn't copyright the game's name before it was announced. This frustrated both skeptics of the game and many eager fans, and there haven't been many updates on the progress of the trademark dispute since this delay.

There is now only a few weeks away from The Day Before's scheduled launch, but Fntastic has been pretty quiet regarding the status of the zombie survival title. If The Day Before wishes to redeem itself in the eyes of gamers, a statement will need to be made soon about whether the project will launch on its November 10 target or not. However, this silence spells trouble for the new release date, and fans excited for the game's arrival are probably better off bracing for another disappointing update. At this point, The Day Before has been marred by the delays and accusations of being a fake game, and fans deserve a statement from the developers.

However, there is also the possibility that Fntastic is potentially planning a surprise launch with a new name for the game in order to resolve the trademark problems. This would be unlikely due to the game's history, but nothing is entirely impossible. Another major concern is that Fntastic stated The Day Before would get a beta test leading up to its November 10 launch date, but time is quickly running out for that promise to be fulfilled.

As far as fans are aware, The Day Before is still in trademark dispute limbo, and the game is still definitely delisted from Steam. The only solid update fans have gotten since the trademark issue has been a short teaser clip for The Day Before that showcases a sports car zooming through desolate streets, with Fntastic failing to show gamers any substantial update on how the game performs and what can be expected at launch. After two years of controversy and development issues, it is highly unlikely that The Day Before will release on its scheduled date. Fntastic could surprise gamers by dropping the game without a beta, but fans should ultimately be prepared for another delay.
