- Release Date Update: Pomegranate Housing Complex: Night Shift DLC - 21 August 2026
Pomegranate Housing Complex: Night Shift, originally scheduled for release in September 2026, has been postponed to October 2026.From July through August, I dealt with a series of health issues, including enteritis, along with a decline in my mental health. This left me with an extended period in which I couldn't secure enough time for development.I've since recovered and have resumed work at my usual pace.Rather than forcing the DLC out in September, I decided it was better to take the time to bring it to a state I can genuinely stand behind. That's the reason for this delay.As for development progress: because this DLC is built on the systems from the base game, the system side is essentially complete. My current focus is on writing and refining the scenario, and producing the in-game artwork.I'm now aiming for a late October release, timed to coincide with Tokyo Game Dungeon on Octob…
