An update for New World was supposed to release today, but Amazon Games has announced that Heart of Madness has been pushed back slightly, following the discovery of a new bug. The news is sure to come as a bit of a disappointment for players, but thankfully, the update has not been delayed by too much; it will now be available on March 30th, instead. Hopefully, there will be no further issues, and the update will be released tomorrow, so fans can get a chance to experience what the developer has been up to!
“After testing we have decided to hold on releasing the Heart of Madness update until Wednesday morning (3/30). This delay is caused by a bug found late and needs to be fixed before releasing the update,” the company wrote on Twitter.

As of this writing, Amazon Games has not announced a specific release time for the new update. Heart of Madness was originally going to launch on March 29th at 7 a.m. PT, so it’s possible the delay is exactly 24 hours later, but that’s just speculation, at this time. In a follow-up Tweet, the game’s developers acknowledged any frustration related to the delay, promising to get the update available as quickly as possible.
“We know it is frustrating being excited for a release and then having it pulled back. We are just as excited as you for the Heart of Madness Release!We are working to get a fix built and tested quickly so that we can release Heart of Madness.”
Delays are always disappointing, but hopefully this one will lead to a better product! When Heart of Madness does release, it will include a number of changes, including weapon and combat updates, quality of life improvements, bug fixes, and a whole lot more. All in all, it sounds like a substantial update, and fans will have a lot of new content to experience when it drops.
