Developer New World Interactive has delayed the release of its team-based tactical shooter Insurgency: Sandstorm. The game, which was originally due to launch on PC next week, September 18th, will now arrive on December 12th.
Announcing the delay on its blog, New World Interactive said, "This was one of the hardest decisions our team has ever had to make and not one taken lightly". However, it felt that the move would ultimately be "in the best interest of the game and our community", allowing the developer time "to ensure we deliver the best possible experience".
New World Interactive's decision comes in response to community feedback gathered during Insurgency: Sandstorm's recent pre-order betas. "We are acutely aware that not all of you are having the ideal experience we want to deliver," explained the studio.
