Omori’s Switch and PS4 Physical Release CancelationA Series of Unfortunate Delays
Omori’s physical release for Nintendo Switch and PS4 in Europe has been canceled, as announced by the Spanish publisher Meridiem Games on Twitter, citing technical difficulties with multilingual European localization.
When a Twitter user asked about what kind of problems the developers had regarding the localization, the publishers said that it could not give any more information apart from what was communicated in the post.
Fans have noted that stores like Amazon listed the game’s European physical release as March 2023. However, it was delayed to December of the same year, and again to March 2024. Those who pre-ordered received an email from Amazon saying that the release would again be pushed back to January 2025. Unfortunately, these delays culminated in today's announcement of the release's cancellation.
The cancellation has undoubtedly disappointed many fans, especially as it would have been the first time that the game would officially be playable in Spanish and other European languages. European fans can still physically own the Switch and PS4 versions of Omori, but only by importing a US copy of it.
