Seconding (thirding, maybe) the hope for an "And it's available right now!" announcement at PGW. I honestly thought this game would have been out months ago; I've been looking forward to it for ages now.

Yes, development of Rime has taken Tequila Works already twice as long as Deadlight did, but still, we haven't had any indication that it might be in trouble or anything. Just have patience, I suppose.

Per the game's blog, they're ironing out bugs and optimizing right now. Hopefully not too much longer, but they're being really thorough with things. I just hope the game is advertised and sells a bunch, deserves it.

Yup that was it. Completely forgot about it until now. Doesn't look like it did so well.

Is that "The Wild" game people are mentioning the one with the gif of the boy running through a desert with lightning in the background?

Yes, Submerged is not a good game, I played and reviwed, very boring experience. Still gave it a 6 most because of the visuals and the sailing mechanics

The game already went gold, they are just waiting on Sony to make the announcement. My guess is PGW.

It did not went gold, they just completed a crunch of the development process

I would expect a release date announced on the PS Blog a month, maybe two before release. Similar to what happened with Helldivers, Hohokum and Rapture

I thought the game was coming out this Summer and it seems like it's been stealth delayed.

:/ I was really excited for this game too.

Can they really delay something without a hard street date?

I would have loved a summer release too, but you gotta keep those expectations in check.

One of my most awaited games, no show at Sony's PGW presser (afaik they weren't even in the intro montage? Hellblade, & Shadow of the Beast were), and already confirmed they won't be at PSX.

This said, on 10/20th they twitted there would be "exciting news soon".

https://twitter.com/RiMEGame/status/656491397533605889

so my theories:

- Crunch mode is on for a possible Dec 2015 launch, but release date still uncertain (lack of any showing at all still a bit weird)

or (my personal pick due to evidence)

- Rime has now somehow become a multiplatform title (PS4/ XB1/ PC) for a possible first half of 2016 release. - Apparently not possible due to IP being owned by Sony.

That or ... they're having big development trouble... Maybe. I hope not.

Personally I think tequila works was actually abducted by aliens and they're now retooling rime as a subliminal messaging tool to make us more amenable to our alien overlords once they arrive in earth. I mean all the evidence really points to that.

Rime is fully funded and published by Sony. It's a Sony IP.

They promised new infos soon last week.

Well, I did not know that.

So scratch my 2nd theory then :)

Lack of -anything- at PGW is doubly weird then...
I guess they're in crunch and can't attend events...

Heck, Abzu was a no show but it had a 1second thing in the montage.

Baseless speculation is the best kind of speculation.

RIME inherited The Last Guardian's vaporware status so that it finally could be re-revealed and released.

Imitation is the best form of flattery.
I seriously can't wait for this game. Thought it'd be out by now. :\

Then again, I've waited much longer for The Last Guardian, so I'll be okay.

Not showing anything just means they're busy developing the game. It's a small studio, so ripping out time to do a bunch of trailers is a waste.

And people saying it's Last Guardian vaporware are weird. It's been two years since it was announced. Games take time to make. Just because there isn't a trailer every week, doesn't mean trouble, canned or anything other then people are working on it.
