Warhammer 40,000: Darktide has been delayed until November on PC, with Xbox TBA
Warhammer 40,000: Darktide has seen another delay, with the Xbox version postponed even further.
The game, which was first announced in 2020, was supposed to be released in 2021 release before reported complications due to the COVID-19 pandemic pushed this back to Spring 2022.
It was then delayed again to September 13, and now developer Fatshark has announced that it’s suffered yet another delay, with the Xbox version held back even further.
Now the PC version is set to release on November 30, while the Xbox Series X/S version will come “shortly after PC, with a specific launch date to come”.
In a statement on the game’s official Twitter account, Fatshark CEO and co-founder Martin Wahlund said: “Today, we decided to delay the launch of Warhammer 40,000: Darktide to November 30 for PC. Xbox Series X/S will launch shortly after PC, with a specific launch date to come.”
“Delaying a game is perhaps one of the most difficult decisions a developer faces and one we are not excited about making.
“Still, we hope this speaks to our commitment to taking the time necessary and doing whatever it takes to get you the best possible game.
“While we have been humbled by the great feedback on the game so far, we also need more time to improve stability, performance, and to mature key systems. Each is critical to making sure we have the best possible experience for you, the players.”
