The company’s executive manager, Hans van Brakel, has shared the following:</p> <blockquote readability="12"> <p>“Due to recent developments in the market that are beyond our control, we have made the difficult decision to postpone some of the physical releases to a later date. The global crisis has a big impact on logistics, which makes it difficult for us to manufacture, ship and sell physical games right now. However, the digital releases will continue as planned.”</p> </blockquote> <p>As it stands, this means that both <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/monstrum">Monstrum</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/adamrs_venture_origins">Adam’s Venture: Origins</a></strong> will be impacted. Digital releases for both games will be happening as originally planned (and release dates are expected soon), but the physical editions will be delayed until further notice.</p> <aside class="object object-youtube"> <div class="youtube"><iframe class="resize" width="900" height="507" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/a5AL4qqBSL8?rel=0&hd=1&showinfo=0&modestbranding=0&autohide=1" type="text/html" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen>[embedded content]</iframe></div> </aside> <aside class="object object-youtube"> <div class="youtube"><iframe class="resize" width="900" height="507" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/GSnLsnR4iRE?rel=0&hd=1&showinfo=0&modestbranding=0&autohide=1" type="text/html" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen>[embedded content]</iframe></div> </aside> <p>Last Friday, it was revealed that <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2020/04/gamescom_2020_officially_cancelled_digital_event_now_in_the_works">Gamescom is the latest event to be cancelled</a> due to the coronavirus. <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2020/04/e3_2020_wont_get_an_official_digital_replacement_despite_initial_plans">Unlike E3</a>, however, a digital event is planned to replace the physical show.</p> </div> https://www.sickgaming.net/blog/2020/04/20/soedesco-postpones-upcoming-physical-switch-releases/ |
