Hey guys what is up welcome back to my blog I’m so thankful that you guys took the time out of your day to read my blog post. I just found out that some games got delayed this year some of which I was desperately waiting for. Though disappointed I still think that this is a good thing why I’ll show you.
Marvel’s Avengers
Marvel’s Avengers was supposed to come out on May 15, but Square Enix delayed it by several months. This delay was attributed to ensuring that developer Crystal Dynamics would deliver the “ultimate Avengers gaming experience.” This extra time will be spent fine-tuning and polishing the game. I really really wanted this game being a big fan of Marvel but again I really want to play the game at its best so I guess a few more months of torture is viable.
Release date: September 4, 2020
Cyberpunk 2077
This didn’t come as a huge surprise, but it was disappointing. CD Projekt RED delayed Cyberpunk 2077 from its initial release date on April 16, 2020. In the announcement regarding its delay, CD Projekt RED simply said that though the game is “complete and playable,” there is still a lot of work to be done. This is certainly one of the most ambitious projects of CD Projekt RED but I seriously can’t wait for this game and I’m really hoping they deliver on this delay.
Release date: September 17, 2020
Doom Eternal
Just a month before it was set to initially release in Nov. 2019, Bethesda bumped back the release date of Doom Eternal into 2020. Developer id Software wants Doom Eternal to live up to its standard of polish. Now it shares a release date with Animal Crossing: New Horizons, a game that couldn’t be more different if it tried. I wasn’t really ever a fan of doom but I wanted to wait for this one a few months so I can see if it’s worth my time. Needless to say this delay doesn’t hurt me that much.
Release date: March 20, 2020
Dying Light 2
Dying Light 2 can’t seem to catch a break. It was supposed to hit consoles and PC sometime in Spring 2020, but Techland has since delayed it indefinitely, with no word on a new release date. I am still playing the original Dying Light and I’m thinking about not picking this one up. All we can do is stay tuned for more details in the coming months. Let’s just hope it doesn’t land in development hell.
Release date: TBD (Delayed indefinitely)
Final Fantasy 7 Remake
Another unsurprising delay; the first part of the Final Fantasy 7 Remake won’t make its planned launch of March 3, 2020. Luckily, Square Enix only delayed it by about a month, so we won’t be waiting too long to get our hands on the highly anticipated remake. I want this and I will have it no matter the cost. The original FF7 was great and I just wish to experience that again in this great remake.
Release date: April 10, 2020
Gods & Monsters
The developers behind Assassin’s Creed Odyssey have been hard at work on Gods & Monsters, but the game still needs a bit more time to cook before it’s ready. Ubisoft went and delayed several games to its 2020-2021 fiscal year, and Gods & Monsters happened to be one of them. I just wish this game is released in 2020 cause my wallet will already be hurt will all the games coming out in 2020.
Release date: Between April 2020 and March 2021
The Last of Us Part II
I genuinely felt bad for this delay because Naughty Dog set up a whole event to unveil The Last of Us Part II’s release date, making a huge deal that was is coming out in February…. only for it to be delayed a couple of months later. The Last of Us Part II is now expected at the end of May. I will pick this game up cause ever since I played the original and the trailer for this one dropped I want to see the continuation of the original masterpiece.
Release date: May 29, 2020
Rainbow Six Quarantine
We don’t know a lot about Rainbow Six Quarantine, and we may not learn more for a bit now. It was supposed to release before the end of Ubisoft’s fiscal year — April 2020 — but it has since been pushed to an undetermined date during the next fiscal year. I don’t know if I will ever pick this up that will depend on the reviews.
Release date: Between April 2020 and March 2021
Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2
Fans have eagerly awaited over a decade for this sequel to the cult classic. It was initially scheduled to hit store shelves in March 2020 but was delayed until sometime later in the year at an unspecified date. I was thinking that I will pick this up after I finish my exams in March but here comes disappointment.
Release date: Late 2020
Watch Dogs: Legion
Watch Dogs: Legion was set to take us to a post-Brexit London on March 6, 2020, but it was also delayed to Ubisoft’s fiscal 2020-2021 year. Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot attributed the delays to give the teams “more development time to ensure that their respective innovations are perfectly implemented.” This and TLOU 2 are the only games that I wanted in 2020 no matter what but seeing the sheer opportunities and the vastness that the game offers would well prefer a complete game than a broken one.
Release date: Between April 2020 and March 2021
Honestly it breaks my heart that so many games will not be able to come out early this year some of which I was desperately waiting for. But I would prefer a complete game over a broken game any day. Most of the games I played in 2019 had bugs and huge day 1 updates which really annoyed me because when I come home after buying a game I prefer to put it in the disk slot wait a few mins for installation and play not download a huge 20GB update which fixes game breaking bugs. I am prepared to wait a few months for a game provided I don’t have to download huge updates cause they take up space and I have to remove them for new games and if I want to play that game again I need to download it again. Let’s hope we get rid of the Day 1 update culture.
So that is it for this post guys hope you got some value from this. Thank you guys for reading to the end hit me up on Instagram, Twitter and LinkedIn with your thoughts and if you have any ideas which I should write about. Thank you again and I’ll see you all next week.
