I don't remember how long ago I played this (e3 2017?!) but it already seemed like a fun, clear twist on Splatoon-like turf-control combat. I have to wonder if this is a reflection on GungHo as a publisher, or what.

lol, was originally spring this year.

we've seen 0 footage since that e3 as far as I know.

On the bright side, it didn't look that great, so hopefully that means it'll be retooled

Hefty delay, forgot this game existed.
Reminds of Splatoon if it was centered around ninjas with baseball bats and bubblegum lol

Is this the same company porting Grandia? Wonder what's up with that too...

The Grandia 2 build at PAX was apparently really bad, press weren't even allowed to take video, so I suspect that's taking more time. We've never seen Grandia 1, but given they're supposed to be released at the same time, even if G1 is coming along on schedule, G2 delays will affect it too.

Going from a massive boot at E3 2018 to pushed back to Spring 2020 is weird, but they really need it to be good.

Yeah, thought about the game a while back and did wonder where it ended up. Expected a delay, but even earlier than now, to be announced.

Kind of glad as I have a ton to buy for Switch this year anyway. Can't wait to see what they improve on when this finally comes out .

Ouch, feel like this is going to have any potential squandered at this rate.

I'm surprised at the lengthy delay. There was a massive booth at PAX West 2018, with 4v4 matches going on. I wonder what the holdup is?

I'm glad for multiple reasons

1. Give them enough time in the oven and breathing room in the first half of 2020

2. When shown again, they have another chance to give the game a more clear identity besides the "oh cool, ripping off Splatoon!" comments lol

3. One less thing to show in the E3 Direct

Liked a lot of what I played at PAX last year. My only beef was how cumbersome blowing the bubble gum and turning it into your weapon was.
Mechanically in theory, it's fantastic. In practice, it needs some work to feel more intuitive.

I could have sworn someone said it was pretty rough in impressions at some point so this delay may be warranted on that end. Or they could just be boosting the amount of content to make it a feature rich game.
