DON'T NOD announces a new release date for
Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden,
saying the action/RPG is now expected on February 13, 2024 (thanks
Gematsu). This is a delay, as the game was
previously expected on
November 7th, and the new date is now reflected in its
Steam Listing. The announcement is frank about the reasoning, saying this is
to avoid a particularly crowded release window:
DON'T NOD, an independent
video game publisher and development studio, and FOCUS Entertainment announce
that Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden, originally scheduled for release on November
7, 2023, will now be released on February 13, 2024 for PC, PlayStation 5 and
Xbox Series X|S.
Oskar Guilbert, CEO of DON'T NOD, and John Bert, Managing Director of FOCUS
ENTERTAINMENT, jointly declare: “We have decided to postpone the release of this
new franchise by three months, as the market is experiencing an intense release
cycle for AAA titles on PC and consoles at the end of the year. We are convinced
that a commercial release of Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden during a less
saturated period will give it the attention it deserves.”
