Moros Protocol: The Decision for a 2-Week Delay

With the launch date confirmed back in July 2025, Pixel Reign and Super Rare Originals bring an important new update on Moros Protocol. Confirming the decision to delay the release date of the Sci-Fi Roguelike FPS by two weeks. Moving the date from 4 September to 18 September 2025.

However, this delay also comes with the confirmation of the launch on GOG alongside Steam.

 

Moros Protocol: The Reason for the Delay and the Latest News

Although not mentioned directly, the decision to delay was likely caused again by Hollow Knight: Silksong. The highly anticipated sequel to the global phenomenon from Team Cherry. Certainly being one of the most awaited games of 2025. Thus adding Moros Protocol to the ever-growing list of games delayed because of Silksong.

As for the most recent news, the team recently attended Gamescom with a small booth. Meanwhile, their most recent Dev Diary #19 features the game’s composer, Vicky Fysika. Where she shares the creative process of the soundtrack, including strong inspirations from classics like Alien, Blade Runner, and Star Wars.
