Fntastic, the developer behind the highly anticipated game "The Day Before," has released a public apology amidst a series of controversies leading up to the early access release of the title. The game, set to launch on December 7, has been haunted by allegations of plagiarism, trademark disputes, and unpaid volunteers.

In their apology, Fntastic extended their message to both supporters and skeptics of the game, expressing their willingness to accept any kind of criticism without holding a grudge. They urged people not to accuse them of scamming or "asset flip," emphasizing the years of effort their team had put into making their dream game a reality.

"We are like you; we worked hard. And we're incredibly happy that our game will finally see the light of day for everyone to explore," Fntastic wrote, urging people not to underestimate their work.

Controversy has plagued "The Day Before" from its initial reveal, with allegations of similarities to other games. The gameplay trailer released in February gained attention for its striking resemblance to the zombies mode showcase in "Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War." Additionally, the game's logo was noted to bear a resemblance to the logo used for "The Last of Us."

Earlier this year, Fntastic announced an eight-month delay for the game, explaining that they had forgotten to trademark the title. This delay also pushed back the reveal of gameplay footage for a month, further fueling the criticisms surrounding the game.

In other gaming news, the highly anticipated trailer for "Grand Theft Auto 6" has been released, featuring Tom Petty's "Love Is A Long Road" as the accompanying soundtrack. Meanwhile, a newly unveiled trailer for "The Last Of Us Part 2 Remastered" reveals exciting details about the upcoming No Return mode.

Despite the controversies that have surrounded "The Day Before," fans are eagerly awaiting the early access release to finally explore the game's immersive world. Only time will tell if Fntastic's efforts to address the concerns and criticisms will help regain the trust and excitement from the gaming community.
