Wondering what other games join Ooblets in skipping Steam at launch? Check out our list of Epic Games Store exclusives. Whether or not Ooblets intends to stay an Epic exclusive for longer is something we'll have to wait and see. This, however, would mean that we'd still have to wait until at least summer 2023.ĭeveloper Glumberland also previously stated that Ooblets won't make its way "on other PC stores for a pretty long while". It could be that we might see it land on Valve's storefront one year following the launch of its full version.

Ooblets is one potential exception from this rule, since it launched in Early Access on Jand there still are no signs of it coming to Steam. Ooblets Steam release date: Unknown, likely not before summer 2023Įpic Games Store exclusivity deals usually last a year, early access titles eventually releasing on Steam once their full version is ready.In May 2022, the developer revealed that Ooblets' full version is slated for a summer 2022 launch, still only listing the Epic Games Store as the sole place to pick up a PC copy. You'll be able to just install it and run it, like it was on a console.Although the game's Steam page is still live, its TBD release date was a source of discouragement as the title's stint in early access began. If you piss off the Internet, and you know you made a mistake, you can point to the few ill-thought-out death threats and play the victim.Īs for Ooblets, the poor behavior and unprofessional reaction of the developer aside, if you wait for the Steam version you'll get the best possible experience. The death-threats also make for a good excuse for the accused party to make themselves look like a victim.

Asking them politely not to only encourages them. It's frustrating because a few edgy middle-schoolers who think they're being funny can reflect badly on an entire group of people with legitimate complaints. Some ill-adjusted dork is always going to dispense with the empty death-threats. I wouldn't say the community is to blame. The community was mostly to blame because some did issue threats. The developer went crazy and lashed out at the Steam Community.
