Could These Games Get Delayed in 2016?

Liam from The Game Bolt: "There were a ton of games in 2015 that were delayed into 2016, as happens every year, but what about 2016? Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End and Scalebound are already the first “victims,” who’s next? Game development isn’t easy, and a small part of me usually cheers when a development team has more time to work on a game, to hopefully deliver a stellar finished project. Taking a good, long look at the industry, as well as the release dates and studios at the helm, the following games won’t hit their targeted release dates in time, either for better or for worse."

The Legend of Zelda better not get delayed! Well, I want the best Zelda experience so if it does get delayed to be a legendary game then yeah, I'm on it.

Bring back those Ocarina of Time feels!

KimikoGaming3064d ago

The Legend of Zelda is not going to get delayed. It was already delayed to this year and Nintendo said that it will definitely come out in 2016.

Besides, why skip Zelda's 30th anniversary?

BUT what I can see happening is the game coming out to Wii U this year and then getting a port for the NX whenever it comes out.

I have way too many games coming out this year, so I don't mind having a couple delays because it will help my wallet. But I just hope they don't delay more of the games I am most excited for. I was really excited for Scalebound.

I'm praying for Cyberpunk 2077 and Horizon ZW (not in the list) not to get delayed.

KiwiViper853064d ago

CDPR said they aren't even talking about Cyberpunk 2077 until 2017, so curb you expectations.

Khaotic3064d ago

I didnt know that either so maybe a may 2018 release.

Roccetarius3064d ago (Edited 3064d ago )

Yeah, the rumors about CP2077 in 2016 isn't worth any merit. Late 2017 is the earliest, and even then it may be 2018.

It's just wishful thinking and impatience, that makes people expect it in 2016.

Khaotic3064d ago

I'm with you on cyberpunk but i jave the feeling cd projekt red will delay it to 2017 possibly even the same release window as the witcher 3. May 2017 as that window is usually bare in the aaa catagory and it worked extremely well for the witcher 3. I think they are working on it but focused on wrapping up dlc for now. And honestly from there persepective whats the rush, the witcher 3 killed it in sales and they are not hurting for money.

NovusTerminus3064d ago

Cyberpunk 2077 was NEVER 2016...

ScorpiusX3064d ago

Yes to all but Doom & Crackdown

FITgamer3064d ago

I'd say Crackdown is the most likely game on that list to get delayed.

Khaotic3064d ago (Edited 3064d ago )

Maybe, but I doubt it. I mean if its not finished its not finshed but acording to articles lately every MS exclusive is going to be delayed at some point this year. And I dont see it. But Im wrong alot too so who knows

jb2273064d ago

I'd say Crackdown has a pretty good chance of getting a delay in all honesty. The release from Xbox Wire only mentioned a "Multiplayer Summer 2016" release, which could easily suggest that they plan for a long beta period in order to smooth out the tech for a properly working launch. This cloud tech is basically unproven in this capacity & it'll take some time to get it nailed down. Considering MS already has Halo Wars 2, Gears 4 & potentially Recore for the holidays, it's not like they'd be hurting to push it out. I think Crackdown has a bigger potential for a delay than any other title on this list really.

Cyberpunk 2077 Director On 95% Positive Steam Rating: "Never Thought I'd See It"

Cyberpunk 2077 has come a long way from being one of the worst games on the planet to being one of the best ones.

DustMan13d ago

I shelved it after a few hours in game at launch, glad I didn't refund it. One of the few games I've actually completed in the last year, and after finishing the campaigns I wanted to just jump back in from the start. They pulled a No Mans Sky and finished one of the best FPS in the last few years.

Games That Were Bad on Release, But Are Now Great

BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.

Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."

Good list..hoped to see Street Fighter 5 there..and it is.

Vits25d ago (Edited 25d ago )

Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.

darthv7225d ago

Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.

I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.

Kaii25d ago

They consider FO 76 & ME Andromeda to be great now 🤭

anast25d ago

Every game in the last 2 decades...

INMATEofARKHAM25d ago

It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.

gunnerforlife25d ago

Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.

S2Killinit24d ago

That game was just plain good game. It didnt improve, it was just good.

gunnerforlife24d ago

I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!
