Another good news that will bring more quality to the 171 is confirmation that Betagames Group has acquired “advanced corporate tools, generally only accessible to large studios” — something that will certainly bring more care to the full version of the game.
“This entire restructuring and improvement process ended up taking more time than we initially thought would be necessary,” continued the Brazilian studio. “For this reason, we made the difficult decision to postpone the release of the final version of 171 for 2025. This extension will give us more time to complete development with the quality you deserve.”
