NBA Playgrounds 2 Delayed On The Eve Of Its Release
Saber Interactive has announced that it is delaying NBA Playgrounds 2 from its May 22 release date to an unspecified time. All the developer is saying on that timing is that it will have more details soon.
As for the reason for the delay, the developer cryptically says that the delay is due to "exciting things brewing with the NBA Playgrounds franchise that we think will take arcade basketball to new levels."
For more on the game, check out its debut trailer.

Our Take
The sequel was set to thankfully amp up the first game's lack of mode depth, so if Saber wants to add more bang for players' bucks as the Facebook post implies, then that's great too.
