DO NOT PLAY Indefinitely Delayed After Developer Partnership Ends
Japanese escape-room company SCRAP has announced that its debut video game, DO NOT PLAY, is indefinitely delayed. The psychological horror adventure was originally scheduled for a summer 2026 release on Steam but will now launch at an unspecified time.
The postponement follows a mutual agreement between SCRAP and co-developer Fahrenheit 213 to end their collaborative partnership. Development will continue under a new structure led directly by the publisher. SCRAP stated it would announce a new release date once there is a clearer outlook based on current progress.
