Pigeon dating sim Hatoful Boyfriend delayed to September

Sorry lovebirds, but the pigeon of your dreams won't land until September. Hatoful Boyfriend, the world's finest (and, as far as we know, only) pigeon dating simulator has been delayed from August 21 to September 4.

For those unaware, Hatoful Boyfriend is a largely typical Japanese dating sim, only in lieu of waifish teenagers, your prospective mates all happen to be pigeons. Common pigeons, tough pigeons, especially fancy pigeons - whatever sort of teenaged male archetype you'd typically be into is represented in pigeon form. This bizarre twist earned Hatoful Boyfriend a cult following, which eventually spawned an agreement to localize the game for English-language territories.

Publisher Devolver Digital has offered no explanation for the delay, beyond a note that the game "needs a just a little more TLC before it's ready to hatch." Once this issue is cleared up, Hatoful Boyfriend will be available for PC, Mac and Linux.
