"The launch of Crimson Desert, our first large-scale AAA console game, has been unavoidably delayed by one quarter, from the previously announced schedule. This is due to longer than expected timelines arising from schedule coordination and collaborations with multiple partners for offline distribution, voice-overs, console certification, and other launch preparations. We sincerely apologize for not being able to meet the originally promised fourth quarter launch schedule. Please kindly understand that this is a strategic decision aimed at insuring success on a meaningful scale.

 

[TintoConCasera]

Can't be sad, the longer they work on the game the cooler it'd be.

 

[foamdino]

Thank god - my backlog is growing without even buying anything (Trails in the Sky remake is now 80+ hours...). I can wait until next year for this.

 

[Represent.]

Too close to gta

 

[R3TRO]

Good my backlog is too full.

 

[Guesclin]

There goes their chances to win GOTY 2025 and GOTY 2026 big SAD !!!!

 

[Pejo]

Fine by me, polish it, make it even better. I'm hyped for the game and am in no rush for it to come out before it's ready.

 

[//DEVIL//]

release it same day as GTA6.


will ensure maximum profit.

 

[Mister Wolf]

No rush.

 

[TintoConCasera]

[Sept Terrion Of Nothing]

I don't know why but I got a feeling that this game will split players into 2. One side will love it and one side will hate it.

By the way, it is good that they delayed the release. As long as the final product will be ok, I don't mind at all. Like everybody I have huge backlog as well.

 

[saintjules]

Can't be sad, the longer they work on the game the cooler it'd be.

Not necessarily, but I have faith in this one.

 

[KàIRóS]

Crazy how good 2026 already looks for gaming and we probably haven't even seen a third of what will be released

 

[Guesclin]

the CCP

 

[Radical_3d]

If you still trust Asian developments I have some land in the moon I could sell to you.

 

[Jinzo Prime]

I always expected it to get delayed to 2026. They need to really get the marketing started soon. Hopefully they have a new demo for Gamescom.

 

[pnutboy]

Dammit, had a feeling when they held out on a date for so long. Still have a very good feeling about this game

 

[Braag]

This game seems pretty ambitious, better they don't rush it.

 

[The_hunter]

That's too bad. But with Ninja Gaiden 4, and Lost Soul Aside I'm set for action games this year.

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

Looking forward to it. I got enough for the rest of the year already.

 

[Bartski]

 

[belteshazzar]

Lol, this game was supposed to be a launch title for PS5. It's still one of my most anticipated games, it looks really cool. Really hope they don't pull a deep down here.

 

[Jesb]

Q1 is reserved for RE9 for me.

 

[clarky]

Too close to gta

Does everyone think people are just going to stop buying games for 6 months or something?

 

[Embearded]

No problem, that part of the year was too crowded for me anyway.
Let it cook, i am sure it will be a tasty dish!!

 

[SomeNorseGuy]

Looking foreward to this one. Better they do all they can to release it in a good state, so I say let them cook.

 

[Feel Like I'm On 42]

Now we need Sony to delay Yotei and all will be well. That game looks like a ps4 game

 

[Lux R7]

It's fine, plenty of games to play this year

 

[saintjules]

Does everyone think people are just going to stop buying games for 6 months or something?

Agreed. Those comments are so silly sometimes.

 

[Gonzito]

 

[WINSDTN6]

And they'll delay it again, into oblivion – mid-year to year-end, repeating their track record. The initial reveal was 5 damn years ago.

GTA 6 will literally launch first at this point lmao

 

[Rheon]

God damn it, was really looking forward to it this year.

 

[TheDarkPhantom]

Take your time, make it one of the best of the generation

 

[llLeonhart]

Its a little sad not gonna lie, this is my most anticipated game this gen.

At the same time, let them cook.

 

[b0uncyfr0]

 

[Angry_Megalodon]

this game was supposed to be a launch title for PS5.

Never. This was a long term project, given its massive scope and how technically demanding it is.

 

[Abysse]

 

[CuteFaceJay]

That's a shame but not really. Just gives me more time to save for a rig that can run the thing.

 

[The artful mincer]

Too close to gta

GTA should be the one that's scared!

 

[Buggy Loop]

I don't even know what's coming for Q4 2025 except for Metroid Prime 4 if that is not delayed as well

 

[TheThreadsThatBindUs]

If you still trust Asian developments I have some land in the moon I could sell to you.

Demonstrably horseshit..... WTF!!?

We've had some excellent Asian developments between Stellar Blade, Wukong etc etc.

And Japan is also part of asia too... loooool

 

[AJUMP23]

Better to release a good game than a buggy one. Do FEB so you don't have to fight GTA.

 

[schaft0620]

I think this will ultimately be fall 2026 and will be a GOTY contender.

 

[Radical_3d]

loooool boom! Owned!

 

[Xtib81]

This game was originally supposed to release in 2021 lmao.

 

[ecosse_011172]

Nintendo still have to unleash their lineup.

 

[Buggy Loop]

Nintendo still have to unleash their lineup.

I doubt there will be a big surprise by end of year, they already announced that the holiday seller is the Pokemon bundle

Next Nintendo Direct:

 

[Fbh]

Had a feeling this was getting delayed, it was getting pretty late into the year to still not have a specific release date.
Hopefully it actually delivers when it releases.

If you still trust Asian developments I have some land in the moon I could sell to you.

Why?
Korean devs have been pretty solid this gen
Stellar Blade, Lies of P and Kahzan all had pretty positive reception from both critics and players.

 

[hemo memo]

That's totally fine. I really appreciate how clearly they explained it. Much better than the usual industry-standard "please understand" responses.
