Slapped with the added challenge of developing a video game in a COVID-19 world whose only ray of sunshine so far has been the news of Brazil’s horrible president contracting a case of karma, Hangar 13 confirmed that Mafia: Definitive Edition wouldn’t hit its intended August 28 release date and would instead be a few weeks late. For now, the game’s new release date is September 25.

It was bound to happen! No stranger to delays, CD Projekt RED has confirmed that Cyberpunk 2077 will be shifting from its original September 17 release date to November 19. Every other video game scheduled for a September release is currently breathing a MASSIVE sigh of relief.

Guilty Gear Strive won’t be launching in 2020. I’ll give you guess as to why, but here’s a clue: It rhymes with “lowered nine beans”.

There’s a bit of uncertainty in the air right now over the launch of the next generation of gaming hardware and the software that’ll follow in its wake. Sort of like a lost fart in a perfume factory. The fog of war in the gaming industry has resulted in developers and publishers from all spheres of development to adapt or perish in a rapidly changing environment where release dates are constantly shifting and established plans have been thrown out of the window.

Now might be a good time to catch up on some other Anime that you missed while you spent years watching all three million One Piece episodes.

And not because of the Coronavirus! Actually that’s a bare-faced lie, of course it’s because of that damn virus that makes me want to hit F5 on 2020. The keyboard command for a refresh and Brock Lesnar’s finisher. Here’s the official news, from Kojima Productions.

May 29 was the day that fans of Sony and developer Naughty Dog were eagerly waiting for. A day that would allow them to finally return to a strange post-apocalypse, a not too distant future where mushrooms had taken over the planet and anyone who had survived the spore scourge in this twisted new world had become a bit of a bastard. You might have to wait a little bit longer to go back to that world.

Earlier this year, Cyberpunk 2077, the next RPG for the folks who brought us The Witcher games, was delayed. The developer moved the much-anticipated game from April 16th to September 17th.
