- Lost Soul Aside was recently delayed by two months to August.
- According to an insider, the game is likely to receive another delay next month.
- The insider states that internal PlayStation actions, along with a specific reason, suggest a delay is imminent.
Following the popularity of Souls-Like and action-RPGs of different types, the industry seems to be returning to character-action games again. Among highly anticipated upcoming titles, Lost Soul Aside is one that has many gamers excited.
First announced several years ago as part of PlayStation’s China Hero Project, the game has undergone tremendous growth over the years. This also means that it has been delayed countless times, and an insider predicts that yet another delay is on the horizon.
Why it matters: The game received a May 30 release date earlier this year, which was later changed to August 29.
As pointed out by insider Detective Seeds, PlayStation’s internal actions suggest that the game will not be able to meet its August release date.
According to the insider, there is a specific reason why he believes this will happen. Although he did not go into many details, it seems Lost Soul Aside is not yet prepared for release.
For context, PlayStation has confirmed its presence at China Joy 2025. The event runs from August 1 to August 4 and will likely feature Lost Soul Aside receiving a new trailer or gameplay footage.
This event has historically proven to be very important for the game, so the insider believes a delay could be announced during or after the event. If the report comes to fruition, the game will have been delayed twice in the span of two months.
As mentioned earlier, the August 29 launch date was announced in April, so this would mark the second major delay for the game in 2025. However, considering Lost Soul Aside was first announced by developer Bing Yang nearly a full decade ago, fans might not necessarily mind waiting a bit longer.
Lost Soul Aside is set to provide gamers with an exciting blend of fantasy and action gameplay. In many ways, the title seems to be filling the gap left by dormant IPs like Devil May Cry.
With the likes of Ninja Gaiden also returning later this year, Lost Soul Aside will be just one of the many high-quality action games fans will be able to enjoy very soon.
