[TheWorthyEdge]

That's too bad...

 

[Compsiox]

Can't they just pause time and finish it?

 

[mclem]

Had it ever actually been dated? I don't recall having heard anything particularly concrete.

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

I honestly wasn't expecting it this year. There's just not enough on this game to convince me it's nearing completion.

 

[The Jackdog]

Whatever, sure, as long as its awesome. Cmon Remedy

 

[Alcoholikaust]

 

[strafer]

of course it has

 

[djshauny]

Dam it.

The only XB1 game I was looking foward to this year.

 

[chadskin]

Wouldn't be a true Remedy game without at least one (official) delay ;(

 

[ironcreed]

Suits me. I am overloaded as it is.

 

[Vyse The Legend]

Considering the history of the developer, I doubt it was ever coming this year.

 

[Xater]

It's a Remedy game so I wouldn't be shocked.

 

[JehutyRunner]

'Likely'?

Microsoft - or any other company rep for that matter - doesn't exactly use loose wording like that when it comes to delaying a game.

Had it ever actually been dated? I don't recall having heard anything particularly concrete.

Just 2015.

 

[RoboPlato]

It's Remedy so this is entirely expected.

 

[crookedaxis]

classic Remedy

 

[dex3108]

So another Alan Wake?

 

[Rymuth]

I've suspected it as much for a while.

 

[mrklaw]

So Tomb Raider pops back on to my radar. I can wait for QB if the devs need more time, and it was looking pretty crowded for the TPS action/adventure games with TR/QB/UC4

 

[gamechanger87]

No real surprise here. They are really taking their time with this game. Expect a lot of stuff on it at E3. This fall is already packed anyway.

Well his source is a site called Xbox Elite Team... and their additional information also has no source.

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

Sounds about right.

I'd be more heartbroken if I knew what the game actually was.

 

[Hesemonni]

Wouldn't be a true Remedy game without at least one (official) delay ;(

This here.

 

[Krakn3Dfx]

This was my next big Xbox One game after Sunset. The wait continues...

 

[Finaj]

Eh. They have Tomb Raider, Halo 5, Fable Legends and Forza 6 this year(and possibly more). I won't be too upset.

 

[Sanke__]

A remedy game delayed
No way
Can't be true

Spoiler

they can delay their games all they want, will buy

 

[Jimmyfenix]

Had it ever actually been dated? I don't recall having heard anything particularly concrete.

I believe they said they were targeting 2015 at Gamescom

 

[backflip10019]

Wasn't the original release date in Q1 this year? Sucks it was pushed back, but if they can make sure it's a great game, then I'm all for it.

 

[Patryn]

What even is this game anymore? Wasn't the whole TV show aspect of it canned as well?

 

[Gries]

So this is yet another game that was announced way too early to generate goodwill with the hardcore crowd and early adopters :-/

 

[Spottiettiedop]

Ambitious game, Remedy please get this right.

 

[Nibel]

To be honest, while the game has a appealing visual style, the actual mechanics didn't really grab me. Better deliver a good product then rush it out.

 

[SgtCobra]

:|
Take your time Remedy, I guess. Still better than a buggy rushed game.

 

[ChaosXVI]

As Duke Nukem would say:

"That's gonna hurt come Winter."

 

[dancrane212]

You slay me again Remedy.

At least my 2016 anticipated list is ready to go!

 

[Derpyduck]

So what does that leave at retail for the year? Forza, Halo and Tomb Raider? And they all appear to be slotted for the end of the year? Not a very good year imo. All this does for me is make it really easy to continue to wait for a complete console redesign before buying.

 

[ironcreed]

So another Alan Wake?

Kind of what figured would happen. But AW ended up being pretty great, so let them do their thing.

 

[Jomjom]

I think the vast majority of gaf was already expecting 2016 or beyond so no big surprise. It's remedy after all.

 

[mocolostrocolos]

Yeah, this had good chances of happening.

 

[GlamFM]

That means more time to make it EVEN BETTER!

 

[Percy]

What a shock.

Perhaps seeing how the Order got treated had them worried?

I'm not being entirely serious of course, but when you're making a cinematic corridor shooter at a time when such games are being shit on left and right, I could see how putting some distance out there might be tempting.

 

[CapitalismSucks DonkeyBalls]

So this is yet another game that was announced way too early to generate goodwill with the hardcore crowd and early adopters :-/

And said goodwill will atrophy as the length between announcement and release widens.

 

[Samurai G0SU]

Hmm. makes sense.

Now how can i relate this delay with dx12(full)/win10 implementation and say it'll be even prettier?

Seriously can't wait for this game!!! I want a Alan Wake re-release on the One. .. oh fun times with the gameplay using Light. :')

 

[Mass_Pincup]

So close to 3 years after the announcement? They announced it to soon if true.

 

[Eggbok]

Sad that it's delayed but a little glad it is too. The end of this year already has Halo 5, Forza 6, Rise of the Tomb Raider, plus whatever they might announce at E3, plus all the third party games like Battlefront, Black Ops 3, Assassins Creed, The Division, MGSV, etc.

 

[SystemBug]

What even is this game anymore? Wasn't the whole TV show aspect of it canned as well?

Nope. TV is still in

 

[O C]

That would be a shame if it's delayed. Even worse if it skips this holiday season. Halo and Tomb raider have a lot riding on their shoulders if this is true.

unless...*dons tinfoil hat* QB will now be using AR as an optional extra to combat the launch Morpheus in 2016.

 

[TomShoe]

Spoiler

Someone should just post this anytime an anticipated game is delayed.

 

[Radec]

Was it even confirmed for 2015 tho?

 

[AnthonypUK]

wait, this was a secret?

Will be better for them to release early '16, won't get buried in the holiday lead up then like Sunset Overdrive
