Returnal, the latest title from developer Housemarque (Nex Machina, Resogun), has been delayed to April.
Originally scheduled to release in February, the team at Housemarque simply said they need more time to polish the title for release. It will now launch on April 30th.
Update: Returnal has a new release date of April 30, 2021. SIE and Housemarque have made the decision to move the release date in order to give the team extra time to continue to polish the game to the level of quality players expect from Housemarque.

Our Take
As always, we don’t mind delays so this delay for extra polish is certainly welcome. That said, April and May are quickly becoming packed full of big titles now with Outriders, Returnal, Resident Evil Village, Deathloop, Neir Replicant, and more all releasing over the span of a few weeks. Incoming!
