Yeah, May 2nd was already a bad date for Redfall. About a week and a half after Dead Island 2 (which according to previews is a worthy successor to Dead Island 1), only 4 days after Jedi Survivor, and only about a week and a half before Zelda. That is a poor period to launch a AAA new IP into at the best of times, even worse to launch a AAA new IP into a busy period with major missing features like offline play and 60 fps. Delay it until July, the biggest competition there is Exoprimal from Capcom, which like Redfall is a new IP, the other releases for the month are two relatively niche JRPG's (an Atelier remake and the next Legend of Heroes), Hogwarts Legacy's Switch port, and Pikmin 4. Much safer period for Redfall.
