Developer Eshed has announced that Dreadzone, their survival multiplayer game, will not launch next week as originally planned. Instead, the release has been delayed to a period following the major summer Steam sale, which ends next month. The official Early Access release date for PC via Steam is now July 17.
"This change is due to the Steam Summer Sale starting on June 26, which would have conflicted with the game's launch. Releasing a week after the sale gives Dreadzone a better chance to stand out and also allows us a little more time to polish and add a few more things before the Early Access release."

Set in a post-apocalyptic quarantine zone ravaged by the Zeno-29 virus, DREADZONE has players gathering resources, crafting tools, building shelters, and battling zombies, mutants, animals, and other humans in a harsh open world. With first-person combat, base building, and co-op multiplayer, it offers a tense and atmospheric experience.
