The Plucky Squire Will Not Have a Physical Release at Launch

The Plucky Squire was originally revealed nearly two years ago and finally has a release date for September 2024. It’s coming to multiple platforms, including the Nintendo Switch and PC, but there is a small catch. The developers have announced today that the physical version of The Plucky Squire will not be available at launch but at a later date.

The Plucky Squire Physical Edition Delayed from Release

The Plucky Squire is coming to PC, Xbox Series S|X, PS5, and the Nintendo Switch on September 17, 2024, but only as a digital release. All Possible Futures announced today on

that while they’d love to release the physical versions at launch, they’re still working on getting those ready and need more time.

Just like many of you, everyone on our team would LOVE to have a physical edition of The Plucky Squire for our own shelves!

So we’re working to get physical versions ready as soon as we can, but they won’t be ready for launch.

We’ll post here when we have details to share!

No further details were provided, but at least we know that it’s not skipping the format entirely. Physical collectors will just have to wait, at least a few months.

Devolver Digital titles usually take a while before they’re ready for physical release, if at all. This year’s 2D action-platformer Pepper Grinder from Ahr Ech still isn’t available in the physical format which is due in October 2024. That’s almost six months from its release in March 2024, and we expect The Plucky Squire to potentially follow a similar timeline.

The developers have confirmed in their release date announcement that The Plucky Squire will take players around 8-10 hours to complete in the initial playthrough, which is far more than they had originally planned for the title. Even compared to other titles published by Devolver Digital, this is a bit more on the longer side.

It’s an ambitious title, and there’s a lot of anticipation for it as well. It’s also coming day one to the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium subscription service which is another thing Devolver Digitals aren’t known for, at least at launch.
