Imo they should delay Towerborne into Q1 (January) and announce its launch during the Developer Direct, I truly believe anything later than August will be sending the game out to die, I'd say it needs to be delayed not for quality reasons but for the good of the IP and studio, if they are doing it for Avowed then they should do it for Towerborne too, nobody is going to be devastated by an AA slipping out.

  • Q1 - Towerborne & Avowed.
  • Q2 - South of Midnight.
  • Q3 - Doom The Dark Ages.
  • Q4 - Fable.

Won't give months, as we don't have a GTA 6 date and everyone will avoid whatever month it launches in

I wonder if these are ordered in release schedule 🤔

  • Q1 - Avowed
  • Q2 - South of Midnight
  • Q3 - Doom: The Dark Ages
  • Q4 - Fable

Almost 1 AAA per quarter, except I'm not sure I'd label SoM as AAA...Hmm...

Anyway, Microsoft is also labelling the delay as a scheduling one, like Tom Warren did, Nate is also seemingly backing that narrative up, saying a February date is a strategic delay. The recent showings were great and Obsidian are extremely efficient, so I have no reason to doubt this reasoning. I also think February pretty much confirms it's a strategic delay if the leaked mid-November date was legit because February is realistically like, 2 months extra of polishing considering they'll be going on Christmas break for a few weeks too.

Should have delayed Towerborne to January as well...Game is being sent out to die.
