Announcing the shift of Alone in the Dark’s release date to March 20th 2024, THQ Nordic and developers Pieces Interactive said that “the well-being of the teams is a top priority, and both companies want to avoid any potential crunch over the Christmas holidays”.
“With our initially planned release date in January 2024, the Christmas season would have been filled with stress and anything but a jolly time for them.”

They previously bumped Alone in the Dark out of its pre-Halloween spot to avoid some more polish and avoid competing with the likes ofAlan Wake 2andSpider-Man 2. That feels like a smart move now, given the rapturous response to the two sequels.
