[2022] I saw in in-game chat that multiplayer is coming this Sunday. Is that true?

I just wanted to quickly pop in to try to clarify this misunderstanding. In an early Developer Blog we had mentioned that we were looking at "september'ish" for patch 0.8.6. In the following Development Update we announced that with early multiplayer testing going so well, we instead decided to go straight to update 0.9.0 with the multiplayer beta, skipping 0.8.6 - and this would require a bit more time (past the "september'ish" mark). We do not currently have a date we're ready to share for update 0.9.0
