It too was announced for both PlayStation 5 and PC, with the latter said to release ‘shortly after the PS5 version,’ according to the PlayStation Blog.

Despite it launching for PlayStation 5 in January, there is still no sign of the PC version half a year later. Hardly what you’d describe as a short wait.
