Another Star Wars Game Delayed
The Force seems to have abandoned the game market this year. Admittedly, Star Wars: Hunters did not share the fate of KotOR Remake, but it still suffered a delay.
If you thought that the end (?) of the pandemic was also the end of massive delays of video game releases, we have to disappoint you. The list of delayed titles continues to grow, including Star Wars titles. Star Wars: Hunters will not debut until 2023, as announced by Zynga on Twitter.

The publisher did not provide an exact reason for the delay beyond the typical mention of wanting to "meet high expectations" for the game. The announcement mentions Arena mode to be the "biggest priority," but did not go into detail.
Zynga promised instead that those playing under the so-called soft launch can still expect regular updates. The next one is expected to hit SW: Hunters in a few weeks.
Those waiting for this free project may feel disappointed, although they can take comfort in the fact that Hunters is at least still in development. That's more than can be said for the remake of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. According to rumors work on the project has been halted, and on top of that the game has lost key developers.
