Flint: Treasure of Oblivion delays its release date back to November 14

Developer Savage Level and publisher Microids have pushed back the release date of tactical RPG Flint: Treasure of Oblivion to November 14. It was originally set to release on October 24. The reason for its delay is for additional polish to ensure that the game will have a smooth launch.

The RPG features a pirate-themed adventure, in which players take control of a crew and explore the seas for treasure. Story interactions exhibit a comic book panel aesthetic to their presentation and combat is carried out on hexagonal grids.

Before setting off on an expedition, people will have to consider what kind of crew they want to assemble. Different classes specialize in their own set of skills, such as the Surgeon, Freebooter, or Helmsman. Some class combinations can complement one another with additional bonuses, while two members of the same class may be able to perform combos with one another.
