Battleborn Delayed Until May, Out Of Take Two’s Fiscal Year
Battleborn needs more time, it seems. Gearbox and 2K have announced that it has been delayed out of February and the publisher’s fiscal year.
Battleborn was slated to arrive on February 9, 2016. It now lands on May 3, 2016.
For more on Battleborn, you can read a recent hands-on preview. Take Two will be holding its second quarter earnings call later this afternoon.
Our Take
This is a good decision, even if it does have an impact on Take Two’s current fiscal year. As I mentioned in my preview, Battleborn has great ingredients, but they aren’t coming together quite well enough just yet. This buys Gearbox more time to get it right.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
