Om du hade tänkt köpa Total War: Three Kingdoms till undertecknad i födelsedagspresent den 7 mars skulle du ha begått två fel. Dels är jag inte särskilt förtjust i Creative Assemblys mastodontstrategiserie men framförallt har spelet skjutits fram till i slutet av maj. Studion meddelar förseningen via Reddit:
We have some news about the upcoming release of Total War: THREE KINGDOMS…
It’s been an incredibly busy and exciting time for us in the studio. We’ve been able to show you more of Three Kingdoms than ever before and taking the time to evaluate it thoroughly.
There are some revolutionary features going in and it’s looking really good. But we want to make sure it’s great. So we’re moving the release date to 23 May, 2019.
With Three Kingdoms, we set out to create a new level of complexity. As such, we need a little more time to make sure these systems deliver as intended and give you the Total War experience you’ve waited so patiently for.Of course, the extra time won’t hurt when it comes to fixing those bugs that have been hard to nail down, getting the localisation just right, and adding additional polish to help it shine. We all know those little details make a big difference.
We’re lucky to be in a position to do the right thing for our games, and in this case it means taking the time to get everything ready for you. It’s more important to give you a game that you can enjoy to the fullest, rather than stick to a release date just because.
We know not everyone’s going to be happy about this, but ultimately, we believe this the best thing for the game and our players.
Three Kingdoms är det första spelet i den historiska serien sedan 2013 års Total War: Rome 2 och första gången de besöker denna del av Asien. Om du trots vetskapen att man gör detta för spelets bästa behöver en liten tröst kan du alltid läsa Jockes färska förhandstitt av spelet.
