Perhaps native English speakers are more familiar with these terms, but Spanish speakers often have to juggle the words used to indicate “rough” release dates. From “Fall 2022” to “Holiday 2022” there is a difference, but it is so narrow that it is almost impossible for us to appreciate it. Perhaps the same does not happen with Starfield, which after the postponement to the first half of 2023, has just released a track that reduces this margin.
If the game was originally scheduled for November 11, the delay will not be so many months, maybe 4 at most. And it is that in an Xbox Game Pass promo seen by a user on Redditit says it should arrive in early 2023, literally: “Starfield: expected early 2023”.
Starfield: Some lag, but not much
This would be great news for fans who have been eagerly awaiting the new Bethesda Game Studios, as they won’t have to wait long to see it for good. If we move on the quarterly closing dates, Microsoft would have until the end of March to launch it and that it would also remain as part of the second fiscal close of 2022, which would fit in and bring a few precious months to the studio, which would have the most polished title by then.
To the detriment of what they show us at the Xbox & Bethesda Showcase, the truth is that the delay of Starfield and Redfall for this year has undermined the morale of many gamers, who expected at least one big exclusive to close 2022. However, be careful on Sunday, because there will surely be surprises.
