Crackdown 3 blir försenat till 2018

Det monstruöst superefterlängtade Crackdown 3 har varit under utveckling en smärre evighet och var utlovat att skänka ljus till PC- och Xbox One-spelare lagom till november. Nu meddelar dock Microsoft via Polygon att superagentliret blir försenat till våren 2018. Anledningen är, precis som vanligt, att det krävs mer slip och pill för att få titeln att uppnå allas förväntningar:

"We're very excited about Crackdown 3, and so are many fans, and so it's a difficult call to move the release date. However, we want to make sure to deliver the right game, with the right quality, and at the right time. Crackdown 3 is a hugely ambitious game and we want to ensure we deliver the right experiences all the way through every part of the game, whether that's campaign, co-op multiplayer or our competitive multiplayer mode, Wrecking Zone. Getting the balance right between the three modes is important, and we are going to take the extra development time to ensure that. Gamers can expect Crackdown 3 in Spring of 2018."

"Crackdown 3 is an incredibly ambitious project that pushes the technological envelope with immersive true 4K gameplay, cloud-computing competitive multiplayer and a sprawling and futuristic open world. The team has been working extremely hard to deliver a great experience for fans and this extra time will help us do just that."
