Skyrim mod-inspired narrative game The Forgotten City launches this summer

The Forgotten City - an upcoming "mature, narrative-driven game" inspired by an award-winning Skyrim mod of the same name - has been given a new launch window, but it's not too far off. Developer Modern Storyteller has announced that the upcoming PC game is "on track to release in summer 2021", and we've got a shiny new trailer to get a peep at, too.


As the announcement on Twitter notes, this new summer 2021 launch window is "a few months later than [the studio] had hoped". But - as is a now-common theme affecting a raft of studios and projects across the industry - the ongoing pandemic has slowed the developer's progress in getting the game down the pipeline, and it says it needs a bit more time to polish The Forgotten City ahead of its launch to give players "the best possible experience".


"This game has been an absolutely massive undertaking for a core team of three developers, and we're continuing to work as hard as we possibly can," the studio explains, adding: "Seriously. We're really grateful for your continued patience and support."

As you can see, we're now on track to release the game in Summer 2021, a few months later than we had hoped. We're really sorry to keep you waiting so long, but the pandemic has slowed our progress, we need a little more time to polish up the game so that you (as well as all the other users on Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Playstation 4 and Playstation 5) have the best possible experience. This game has been an absolutely massive undertaking for a small core team of 3 developers, and we're continuing to work as hard as we possibly can. Seriously. We're really grateful for your continued patience and support. Thank you! :-)

If you'd like to know the exact release date, please wishlist the game and you'll be the first to know!
