Star Wars: Hunters Officially Delayed

We don’t have a specific reason for the delay, but the announcement does read:

We understand game delays are frustrating, however, our top priority is ensuring players will have the best possible experience in the Arena.

Even though the game is delaying its major release, Hunters has been available for other areas via a ‘soft launch’. Support will actually continue regularly in soft launch territories, and hopefully the devs can gather enough data from players to know just how to improve their game.

I’ll admit, of all the incoming Star Wars games titles, Hunters has been the one I’ve been most curious about. I guess it’s interesting to see a game that’s not so focused on any legacy characters, and everyone in the roster promises a unique play-style with their mix and match of abilities. I don’t see a robot Jedi finding its way into any other kind of SW material in the future.

Despite the delay, I’m crossing my fingers we get a look at some more content in the future. Maybe something around the release of Andor later in the year?

Star Wars: Hunters launches in 2023 for Nintendo Switch, Android, and iOS.
