As someone who's eager for the game I'd hate to see a delay but to be honest from a business perspective a delay might make some sense too. PS5 sales seem to promote game sales and the PS4 install base seems to be having little effect. So with that in mind what would you do? Sell after Christmas when install base is high and steal some of the other competing releases thunder or just before Christmas sold as a possible pack in for those buying a PS5, but then be competing with TLOU1/COD?
I hope it's the latter with TLOU1 being a possible pack in (price of console + price of game) but what do Sony have planned for H1 2023? Is spiderman 2 planned for H2, is it set to even make 2023?
Yup, as you say from a business side it makes ense to delay.
