The Order: 1886 is one of my more anticipated games. It looks stunning, and I’m a sucker for that Steam/Diesel Punk aesthetic. However, we might not be getting it when everyone was hoping.
Over on twitter, we’ve got a couple rumors indicating that the game will be delayed until February.
The Order 1886 is indeed delayed and release is now set for February i’ve been told by someone who works for Gamereactor.

I suppose we’ll have to wait for an official announcement from Sony, but it does look like The Order will probably be delayed. Not that we’re overly surprised. Darryn called this months ago, saying the game just didn’t look ready yet. Plus, with the new tech that Geoff learned that they were using while at Gamescom last year, it’s no wonder that the game is taking longer to make. But I think it will pay off in the long run.
Can we really even call it a delay – we never actually had a clear release date. Yes, we were all expecting it at the end of this year, but maybe it will be better for the new IP if it releases early next year, when people actually have time and energy for it, rather than during that October glut period. Are you still excited for this game, or will you have to build up steam again?

I’m not all that fussed about delays, however the hive tends to latch onto these things and turn it into game disaster stigma.. just look at what has happened with Watch Dogs… pretty silly really.

There is plenty to keep us busy game-wise until then, but now we need to look forward and move past this delay and see whether or not my Watch Dogs pre-order was worth it. When are dam reviews coming out on Metacritic!? :). I need to know if I threw my money away on another pre-order that ended up a bust.

Maybe if you buy a PS3 & 4 at the same time they’ll throw in a free WiiU.. I mean… Vita.

Not really bothered, one game generally lasts me a few months so I have a lot of backlog on my PS4 as it is.

So the internet rages about the gameplay looking sh*t after watching a dodgy twitch stream and the game gets delayed #tinfoilhat

PS4 has the superior visuals on all console AAA multiplats, more dev support including indies, a large number of first party studios, free to play games and MMOs like FFXIV and Warframe, and unannounced 1st party games. Titanfall 2 and future 3rd party games will almost certainly be on PS4.
1st-2nd party studios include Media Molecule, Quantic Dream, Guerilla Games, Sony London, Bend, San Diego, SOE, Santa Monica, Polyphony Digital, Naughty Dog, Japan Studio, Ready at Dawn, Evolution Studios, etc.
PS4 games not on Xbox One: Killzone, inFamous Second Son, Dynasty Warriors 8, Final Fantasy XIV, Warframe, DC Universe, Yakuza Isshin and other Japanese games, MLB 14 The Show, Bound by Flame, Injustice Gods Among Us, Knack, Natural Doctrine, Transistor, Uncharted, Planetside 2, Dragon Ball Z, MotoGP, Deep Down, Driveclub, The Last of Us, The Witness, The Order, and a ton of indies including Resogun, Rime, Transistor, etc.
Recently Sony has filed trademarks or had leaks for no less than 6 games. Entwined, Kill Strain, Blood Borne, Dark Chronicles, Project Beast and Guns Up.
Don’t worry PS4 will keep selling like hotcakes based on superior multiplats alone, and bundles with Destiny and Watch Dogs.
