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 in Google Play's approval process for a crucial patch addressing pre-release issues. The Android version will return to the Google Play Store as soon as possible, leaving Android users temporarily without access.

This setback is unfortunate, especially given the game's anticipated launch and blend of classic creature-collecting, battling, and exploration. While these last-minute delays are unpredictable, hopefully, the issues will be resolved swiftly.

A Beastly Bump in the Road

Game launches often face unforeseen complications. In this instance, the required eleventh-hour patch is encountering delays within Google Play's approval system.

The recent prominence of alternative app stores raises the question of whether a broader initial release across multiple platforms might have mitigated this issue. While a valid consideration, the delay is likely to be short-lived, with a return to Google Play expected within days.

In the meantime, for Android users eagerly awaiting Cassette Beasts, exploring other top mobile games might help bridge the gap.
