Soapbox Video Game Delays Are Important
Gabriella urges patience
When your most anticipated game is delayed, it can be a painful pill to swallow. Admittedly, I’ve had my fair share of these instances in the past. An example of this came in 2013, when Sony made the bold decision to delay a game I had been looking forward to playing since its announcement back in 2011: Naughty Dog's...

New screenshots released
As anticipated, Red Dead Redemption 2 is hanging up its hat and returning to the saloon until Spring 2018 on the PlayStation 4.

Bad Eggman
The Year of Dreams™ has taken a temporary blow, as Sonic Mania has been pushed out of its Spring release window and into the Summer instead.

News Persona 5 Gets Delayed Until April on PS4, PS3
Back into the shadows
Bah. There was a rumour earlier this week saying that Persona 5 would be slapped with a delay here in the West, but the source wasn't something that we could base a report on. Sadly, that doesn't matter anymore, because Atlus has now confirmed that the role-playing release really has been delayed in both North America and...
News EA Not Against Delaying Mass Effect: Andromeda Again
Time and space
According to EA, Mass Effect: Andromeda is still slated to release this fiscal year, which means that it's on course to launch by the end of March 2017. When you stop and think about it, that's not too far away, is it? Don't shoot your hype into orbit just yet, though, as the publisher has revealed that it's certainly not against...
News PS4 Exclusive Gravity Rush 2 Tumbles into 2017
Another one bites the dust
Well, this is becoming an unfortunate reoccurrence, isn't it? There's not one game that Sony hasn't delayed this year, and Gravity Rush 2 is the latest to join the "pushed back" party. To be fair to the Japan Studio developed title, this very much appears to be a marketing move rather than a production problem – but that...
News South Park: The Fractured but Whole Clenches Its Cheeks Till 2017
Stinker
It's that time of the year where release dates get chopped and changed, as publishers realise that releasing their wares amid the holiday rush perhaps isn't the best plan. South Park: The Fractured but Whole is the latest casualty, as Ubisoft has pushed the licensed role-playing game out of December and into Q1 2017. "The development team...
News Oh Dear, The Last Guardian Delayed into December on PS4
DelayStation 4
Sony's been suspiciously quiet with regards to The Last Guardian since it finally got a release date at E3, so it comes as no real surprise to hear that the PlayStation 4 exclusive has been delayed by a month and a bit. Indeed, the spiritual successor to Shadow of the Colossus will now launch on the 6th December, as opposed to 25th...
News Gran Turismo Sport Delayed to 2017 on PS4

News Final Fantasy XV Buckles Up Until 29th November on PS4
Phoenix down
Remember when Square Enix put on a massive press conference to announce the release date for Final Fantasy XV? The surprisingly solid show ended with a comical red buzzer, which when pressed cycled through a dozen different potential release dates. It teetered on November for a nanosecond, before settling on 30th September. The...

News Fallout 4 Mods Suffer Another Setback on PS4
The saga continues
PlayStation 4 mod support for Fallout 4 has fallen foul of another setback today as Bethesda has revealed that the incoming mods beta on Sony's console has been delayed.

News Batman: Return to Arkham Delayed on PS4
No Batusi just yet
Warner Bros. has delayed Batman: Return to Arkham a month before its original 29th July release date, with no sign of a new launch window.

News Dino Dini's Kick Off Gets Underway a Week Late
Blame the kit man
Indie footie fave Dino Dini's Kick Off Revival will take to the field a week later than expected, it's been revealed. The game was originally due out on 17th June, but will now deploy on 24th June.

News Yep, No Man's Sky Has Been Delayed Again on PS4
No man, why
It was inevitable, we suppose. Just two weeks ahead of Sony's E3 2016 press conference, No Man's Sky appears to have been hit with another delay. The information comes straight from the game's media page on playstation.com, so we'd say that it's pretty much official. You can probably expect some sort of statement from Sony or developer...
Rumour Is No Man's Sky Landing on Our Planet Later Than Expected?
Space sim may be delayed
No Man's Sky may have been delayed – disappointing millions but helping with our post-E3 recovery immensely.

The...

News Uncharted 4 Has Been Delayed Again, and We're Not Even Kidding
We wish we were
Want to hear a joke that's not funny anymore? Uncharted 4: A Thief's End has been delayed again. It's not funny because we're being deadly serious – and so is Sony. So serious, in fact, that Sony Computer Entertainment America president and CEO Shawn 'Crash Bandicoot t-shirt' Layden has personally posted the news on the official...

News Activision Should Cancel the PS3 Version of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5
Scuffed knees
Good news PlayStation 3 owners: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 has been delayed. The skateboarding simulation – which, to be fair, wasn't entirely despised in our review – is spending a little more time in the skate shop on last-gen formats, while Activision properly applies some band aids to the PlayStation 4 version. The game was due...
News Hitman PS4 Whacked Until March 2016
Blood worry
The reveal of Hitman's reboot won't go down in history. The confusing announcement made during Sony's big E3 2015 conference only got more baffling when it was confirmed that Agent 47's revival would be released piecemeal. IO-Interactive's sticking with that approach, but it's at least decided to bide its time, and put the release on...

Stop the march
Real time strategy title Grand Ages: Medieval has been delayed on PlayStation 4 due to manufacturing issues that publisher Kalypso Media cites as being beyond its control.

News Rainbow Six: Siege Dodges a Bullet with PS4 Delay
Will now deploy in December
When we controversially claimed over the weekend that no one gives a hoot about Rainbow Six: Siege, we weren't being mean about Ubisoft's latest shooter. We have a lot of analytics here at Push Square, and while we don't claim to have a view of the PlayStation 4 market as a whole, we can get a feel for which games are...
News Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 Delays Its Ninja War Into 2016
Here's a cool trailer, though
The writing was on the wall but we didn't want to believe. Last week, it was confirmed that Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 was to be delayed into 2016 in Japan, and as expected, the delay has hit us here in the West, too. Originally scheduled to launch at some point in the autumn, Bandai Namco has revealed...

Sharingan tears
Uh oh, Naruto fans won't be happy to hear this one. According to the latest issue of Jump Magazine, Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 has been delayed into next year in Japan. There's no confirmation on whether this will be the case for the West, but we reckon that it looks likely, especially since the brawler was due to...

The news follows confirmation of the movie's release date, which is set to premiere in US...
News Dead Island 2 Decayed into 2016
Dead and buried
