Recreate Games extends its sincere apologies to fans for the extended wait and promises to provide more accurate and frequent progress updates leading up to the release.

Zixiong Luo, the Producer and CEO of Recreate Games, commented on the development journey: "This being our first game development experience, we underestimated the time required to address the bugs. Additionally, certain approval processes took longer than anticipated. We share the same eagerness as our fans to see Party Animals launch, and we want to ensure it is as polished and bug-free as possible."

The main gameplay features were completed by the end of 2022, and the developers are currently in the testing and bug-fixing phase. To foster transparency and keep the community informed, Recreate Games has outlined the key tasks that need completion before the launch:

• Partner Platform Approval: Final approvals from partner platforms and relevant departments in various countries are top priority, as they are necessary to set up servers and sell the game in specific regions.

• Server Stress Testing: Multiple full-interface and full-volume stress tests will be conducted to minimize server issues and ensure a smooth online gaming experience.

• Offline Trial Version: Players will have the opportunity to try Party Animals at the upcoming Chinajoy game exhibition in July, providing valuable feedback on the near-final build.

Recreate Games assures fans that the new launch date is precise and accurate, and there will be no further postponements. It's time to start planning your Party Animals launch party with confidence!
