Formerly known as Chicken Wiggle Workshop, Hatch Tales is coming to Nintendo Switch later this year. Here’s everything you need to know.

Hatch Tales Release Date – June 21, 2024

Developer Atooi, posted on X (formerly known as Twitter) to announce that the Hatch Tales release date will be moved to July 21, 2024. This was after they originally said that they would release the game on March 28, 2024.

Their post reads:

“With our commitment to excellence, more time is needed to meet our high standards and to deliver an unparalleled gaming experience that exceeds expectations. The new release date is June 21, 2024”.

Additionally, developer also states “We firmly believe this new date will result in game that is more polished, immersive, and enjoyable for everyone. We are dedicating to ensuring that every aspect of Hach Tales lives up to our vision and provides an unforgettable gaming experience”.

Surely enough, fans who have waited for this game are disappointed by this announcement.  One fan expressed disbelief, stating,  “There is absolutely no way you decided to delay this yet again after posting a “final” date with details about the game’s development months ago.”

It’s only fair that fans would be upset regarding this delay since it has been a whopping six years since it was successfully crowdfunded. It was way back in 2018 when Chicken Wiggle Workshop has amassed a total of $35,634 from 1,553 backers.

While some fans are dissatisfied with the news, others are still supportive of the game. One fan said “Whilst a further delay is frustrating, I do like this new direction you’ve gone and this new logo is better than you were going for originally. Am still looking forward to it. 😀”
