The Day Before dev is apparently suing a website for calling the game a scam
After years of hype, on Thursday December 7, 2023, The Day Before was finally unleashed onto PC. Immediately, it was clear that something was wrong. A lot of players couldn't get into lobbies. Those who did discovered empty, lifeless maps, and a survival shooter that looked extremely different to what had been shown in trailers. Four days later, developer Fntastic announced it was refunding everybody and shutting down. In January 2024, The Day Before went offline for good. But the story of one of the most infamous game launches in history is not over. Fntastic is now allegedly suing an online publication for calling The Day Before a scam.
