Any news on the YIIK I.V. Release Date?
I only just found out about the definitive update because someone mentioned it on Joseph Anderon’s stream!

I’m so excited, I met the devs of the game at Eurogamer many years back and their love for the game was very real. I can’t wait to play an upgraded version of it and see if it reaches its potential!

It's currently being tested a lot, but is expected to come out in a few months? afaik

It is out yet?
Not sure as to an exact date, but the official Alex YIIK youtube channel released a preview about 3 weeks ago. Seems like they're still working on it.

Tester here, IV is currently finished outside of bug testing and Japanese localization. once the localization is done the update will probably get a release date/window but that depends on timing.

Seems odd that we have to wait for the Japanese localisation...

As far as I understand it, when your game has already launched with a localisation available for a specific region, it's in pretty bad form to update it and drop support for those regions for seemingly no reason. It also wouldn't be a good idea to fracture launch hype between the different audiences. I'm sure they never wanted this to hold the update back from launching, but it is what it is.

By the way, Bot Zim should finish the game he's testing.

Just cameback to replay and finish this game and noticed the IV patch.

Any news I looked into and see dev talking about it coming out soon 1 1/2 yrs ago. Last live stream said by end of summer? still waiting on Japanese localization of a patch?

mentioned in live streams references to the discord and I am sure it is more active then here and has the info but I couldn't find any links to it on their website.

Discord invite code is just "yiik" or "sn3AkezRBU"

Yes the issue is japanese localization the game has been feature complete for a while now so in the meantime theyve just been polishing the game up and fixing bugs

game came out 5 years ago, trying to set pace with yandev on failed expectations over time spent.

3 days ago the game's writer said the game is done. It's a matter of the publisher setting a date for it. And that date will be shown in an upcoming livestream. Details on that stream will be in a steam post and twitter and youtube and places like that I believe.
