- Eat the Rich is now scheduled to launch on September 10th.
- Mobile and other platform versions will follow shortly after the PC release.
- This social deduction game is set in a dystopian future where the wealthy elite face judgment from the masses.
The concept and execution of Eat the Rich, the upcoming social deception multiplayer game, certainly sparks interest. For now, though, we'll have to reserve judgment, as both the PC and mobile launches have been delayed until later this year.
Eat the Rich takes place in a post-apocalyptic setting where the ultra-wealthy survived society's collapse but now must answer to those they once exploited. Forced to compete in a lethal game show, participants battle for survival where every advantage counts.
While the premise might appear quite pointed given current attitudes toward extreme wealth, the game genuinely intrigues with its social deduction gameplay and Squid Game-inspired mini-games that steadily reduce the player count while maintaining tense momentum.
Quality over haste
Although buzz around Eat the Rich has been relatively modest from my view, I imagine many fans will be disappointed by this delay. The game combines a compelling premise with popular social deduction mechanics and Mario Party-style mini-games for added variety.
That said, delays typically happen for good reason. Ideally, this extra development time will result in a more polished experience when Eat the Rich arrives on PC September 10th, with mobile versions coming soon after.
