Today should have been the day that PlayStation 4 players could get one over Sebulba and pip him to first place again in Star Wars Episode I: Racer. The port of the classic podracer was scheduled to launch today, but publisher Aspyr Media has had to delay the title one more time due to its struggle with working from home during the coronavirus pandemic.
Detailed in a tweet, Aspyr Media plans to update those eagerly awaiting the PS4 port with more information as soon as possible.
So, there you have it. We won't be able to buckle up as the young Anakin Skywalker later today and win Shmi a bit of money. She'll have to wait just like the rest of us. At least those interested will still be treated to 25 racers, tracks on eight different planets, and split-screen action. It'll cost you $14.99 at launch, so are you still setting aside some credits for Star Wars Episode I: Racer? Feel the Force in the comments below.

Couldn't they have foreseen this last week, or yesterday even???
@LiamCroft the PS4 version had already been delayed and wasn't coming out today, only the Switch version was https://twitter.com/AspyrMedia/status/1255134255782326277?s=19
@carlos82 I was going to say the same thing. I was ready to buy it today on the Switch. Delaying on the day of release is a bit weird.
However, they delayed the PS4 version to the 26th May a few weeks ago. Are they now suggesting this isn’t happening either?
I cannot wait another month or two.
Will you (PushSquare) be reviewing Huntdown? I 'm sure it comes out today, cannot find any reviews...
Pity I was going to get this as I just like the game and doesn't run well without a CRT on my N64.
A shame as i was looking forward to playing it again but it's understandable why
I think I’m missing something. The sequel (Revenge) was already remastered and it‘s playable through PS Now. It’s...meh. The original was a game my best friend had on N64, and I always thought it was...meh. Maybe if it had more likable characters it would’ve been more enjoyable?
I guess I did have some fun bashing Anni Skywalker character into the rocky cliffs. But even that got old after a few explosions.
Top speed, Anni! The full force will be with you....aaahhhh! <smoosh sound>
