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 a last-minute snag with Google Play's approval process for a necessary patch.

iOS players can now enjoy the game, but Android users will have to wait. The delay is due to unforeseen issues requiring a patch before release, which is currently awaiting Google Play's approval.

This is disappointing news, especially considering the game's anticipated launch. The blend of classic monster catching, battling, and open-world exploration made Cassette Beasts a highly anticipated title. While last-minute delays are unavoidable, hopefully, the Android version will be available soon.

Unexpected Delays

Game launches sometimes encounter unforeseen problems. In this instance, the required patch's Google Play approval process is causing the delay.

The recent rise of alternative app stores raises the question of whether a broader launch across multiple platforms might have mitigated this issue through faster approval times. However, it's likely the Android release will resume within a few days.
