Returnal delayed until April 2021

More time for polish is needed.

Returnal, the PS5 exclusive from Housemarque, has been delayed until late April 2021.

“Update: Returnal has a new release date of April 30, 2021,” Sony advised via Twitter.

“[Sony Interactive Entertainment] 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,” the update continued.

The sci-fi shooter — something remarkably different than Housemarque’s previous, arcade-like titles, was originally scheduled for a 31 March 2021 release.

Returnal now heads to PS5 on 30 April 2021. You can check out a gameplay trailer for the shooter below.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
