The story of vampire shooter Redfall is less clear, given it hasn’t been spoken about much, but there’s still high anticipation for the upcoming title. That’s an extremely lofty goal – and one that likely inspired the decision to delay the title. In early 2022, CEO of Microsoft Gaming, Phil Spencer, claimed the team wanted to make Starfield the ‘most-played’ Todd Howard game, with plans for it to eclipse Skyrim, one of the most popular games of all time. Whether these extra few months will be enough to allay the reported fears of developers is currently unknown.
The delay appears to align with these allegations, and may demonstrate that Bethesda is attempting a more cautious approach to development on the game. According to Schreier, the term ‘Next Cyberpunk‘ was floated for the game – with developers afraid they could be launching the latest buggy, ridiculed gaming disaster. Read: Xbox & Bethesda Games Showcase announced for Juneįollowing the announcement, games journalist Jason Schreier alleged several developers who worked on Starfield were worried about the previous November 2022 release date for the game. That said, with Xbox and Bethesda cooking up an E3-style showcase in June, we could see more from both titles soon, regardless of the newly revealed delay. It appears the games need a bit more work before they’re ready to be shown off to the public. This led to much speculation about both titles – speculation that is now confirmed by Bethesda’s announcement on Twitter. While Starfield had been getting regular updates from Bethesda, many of them have been focussed on concept art and the game’s philosophy, rather than actual gameplay. It's like they are both jumping over each other to see who can fail better.Neither Redfall nor Starfield had been given meaty trailers in the last few months, with Redfall essentially disappearing after its initial launch announcement. I thought Sony releasing 3 last gen games in 2022 was bad. How a big first party can go 2 of 3 years without any major releases is beyond me. Last year was fine with Halo and Forza, but they had nothing in 2020. Microsoft is now set to have another year with no exclusives. Surely they knew if covid was impacting development so they straight up knew those games wouldnt make 2021.
GT7 and HFW were revealed as 2021 games DURING covid. It's like when Sony revealed GOW with a title and said it was a 2021 game. I knew as soon as they didnt release any gameplay footage last year that this was in trouble. The space-exploring sci-fi open-world title was.
MS knew they had zero games for 2022, but couldnt really say that so they released two teasers, one cg with fake release dates to try and fool us. Following in a long line of delays across the gaming industry, Bethesda has now announced that both Starfield and Redfall will also be delayed. These companies always knew they would never make this date but they do it anyway. Instead, billions were spent acquiring more studios.ĭelays are one thing, but delays months after announcing the release date are ridiculous. I remember posting articles here about how Skyrim and Fallout 4 were made by 100 man teams, and I was told that Microsoft's deep pockets would ensure Starfield would be less buggy and release on time.Ģ years later, it turns out MS didnt get them the resources they needed after all. I thought Microsoft buying Bethesda would get them the funding they needed to expand, become more efficient and more productive.
#Sdas starfield and redfall have been delayed to 2023 how to
I prefer they take the time to do things right, only them know how to do Skyrim/Fallout like RPGs. Before Starfield was delayed, I expected TES VI to come out in 2026 (4 years after Starfield), but now that it has been delayed to 2023. In the end I will wait the time I need to wait, play the shit out of this game and most likely enjoy it a lot because I'm a big fan of Bethesda. TheBlackSwordsman said: Well, I guess its safe to say we will have to wait an extra year for TES VI now. If you want to complain you can always find something.ģ: Crying because we don't see a gameplay of a game more than 6 month before the release, trolling people that wait for this game and I am the idiot? Sure, whatever makes you happy. As I quoted, Todd himself talked about that., but maybe you know better than him.Īnd I'm sure if the game was shown before you would have said: "Bethesda & Microsoft are stupid, don't show your game too soon" blablabla. Now I'm asking you, do you see a pattern? (Spoiler if you don't find the answer: yes! they all announced just a few months before the release date! Incredible right? What a world!)Ģ: Yeah and other games are announced just a few month before the release, Bethesda is doing things like that and I'm happy with it. Fallout 76? Announced June 13 and release October 23. 1: Fallout 4 announced June 3 and released November 10 on the same year.
