Date Everything, a new dating sim in which you date all types of anthropomorphic items, is now delayed, and the game is not releasing on Valentine’s Day 2025. It now has a general June 2025 launch window. As is common with such postponements, the developers at Sassy Chap Games pushed it back to ensure the overall quality at launch.
Ray Chase, the voice actor who is also lead designer on the project, explained the additional four months will be spent doing quality assurance testing. He noted that as the Sassy Chap Games team started going through final tests, folks realized exactly how much they needed to go through. As such, the developer decided it was best to ensure it would be in a much better position at launch.
Here’s the full game update regarding Date Everything being delayed and how development on the dating sim is going from Chase:
“Since we last updated you on development, we have been extremely hard at work finishing work on Date Everything! And at this point I can confidently say that we have reached that point where the game is complete to a standard that we feel reached our goals with no compromise in our bonkers artistic vision.
However… I was too confident that we could properly test all the wild amount of content and pathing that exists in this massive game, and unfortunately we ran out of time on our current (and yet so appropriate) release date of February 14, 2025.
Our bug list is finally starting to dwindle down as QA gets through the labyrinthine story pathing, but to submit our game in the state with so many outstanding glitches would be doing you a disservice. We have our final release date set for June 2025. And while it isn’t quite as sexy as Valentine’s Day, we hope we can bring new sexiness to June evermore. And yes, you actually can date the glitches. Their name is Daemon and I am currently in a Love/Hate relationship with them.”
Ahead of launch, we did see Sassy Chap Games reveal more of the love interests. In addition to Ray Chase bringing up Daemon in the delay notice, 12 characters were brought up in December 2024 as part of a 12 Dates of Christmas campaign on social media.
Here are the ones that were revealed then, as well as their voice actors, in case you missed them:
- Abel – Steve Blum
- Beau – Ashly Johnson
- Beverly – Marisha Ray
- Curt & Rod – David Morales & Jacquis Neil
- Daisuke – Daisuke Tsuji
- Holly – Briana Knickerbocker
- Monique – Judy Alice Lee
- Prissy Plastique – Kiera Please
- Sophia – Laura Post
- Tina – Grey Delisle
- Tony – Roger Craig Smith
- Washford & Drysdale – David Sobolov & Neil Newbon
The Date Everything will appear on the Switch, PS5, PC and Xbox Series X in June 2025.
