A Tlou 2 delay would be weird after only a few weeks after its release date announcement.

My bet GoT pushed to Ps5, since the next generation is officially announced by Sony.

A TLOU2 delay couldn't be more perfecto.

It's weird seeing TLOU2 release without a multiplayer component and Sony would absolutely consent to as many delays as there need be to get PlayStation's biggest exclusive.

Once this thing is out, it's going to break Metacritic and sell 20 copies.

Make that 21 copies, even. I'm sure I'll rebuy it on PS5.

I'm on paternity leave so I'm not really in a position to report on this (and I'd be doing that on Kotaku not here), but if what I've heard is true, it's a bit surprising but ultimately not a big deal. People will be disappointed for a few minutes and then get over it. Many people here have guessed it already. I'd be more specific if I had more details - I'll see what I can get in between feedings.
Thanks for the insight. But don't sweat it, enjoy your time with your kid.

It's probably a delay of some sort. Nothing special.

But damn, saying a game hitting a PC is disappointing is laughable.

what would be the reason to announce that now, when the game doesn't even have a release date? it's not like anyone is expecting the game in the coming months.

The only PS4 delay that would be big news to me would be The Last of Us 2. What other big first-party PS4 games are there that have set dates?

I wouldn't be surprised if Sony launched The Last of Us 2 during PS5's launch & added improvements for people that play the game on PS5.

Delay all you want, I still have a shitton of games to play, currently going through The Last Guardian after finishing both Bayo 1 and 2 back to back.
With that said, they are not delaying TLoU Part II till the PS5 launch, that'd be more than half a year delay.

I guess maybe I could see Dreams being delayed to PS5 too, at this point it'd be the smart move for it.

User warned: antagonizing other posters


What could it be? Ghost of Tsushima cancelled? Last of Us 2 delay?


I need to talk about this: Journalists or influencers on twitter who have information they trust but decide to only openly tease it just enough to start the rumour mill but without giving any information of note are not doing a good job. Either you trust your sources and are able to dig deeper into the story or you don't and it's not worth reporting on. This "Ooooh, I know something you don't, hehe!" shit is just going to fuel unfounded speculation, leading to people blaming any singular person they want to attach to your thread.
Report on it or don't report on it. But this weird flexing helps no one but your own ego. Sorry for the harsh words, but I've seen this a little to often in this industry and it's just not a good look.

I hope they delay TLOU2 until PS5 launch. That game in 4K60fps, with improved lighting... Good God. This would probably be the best launch title in the history of video games.

Ah ok so sounds like Ghosts to PS5. Just odd it would be only PS5 and not both systems.

Death Stranding PC version cancelled seems like the only other obvious pick besides a TLOU2 delay.

Not happening. They will not delay it for 9+ months only to release it simultaneously on PS4 and PS5.
I guess it will be delayed for few weeks/months but really not something like 9 months (if PS5 is coming in November which most likely it is).

Death Stranding has gone gold so it's not that.
The Last of Us 2's date was confirmed literally weeks ago so it's not that.

It's gotta be Ghost of Tsushima getting delayed and made into a PS5 launch title.

I can't say I'd complain about this. The current February release date is torture for me. Too close to PS5 for me to justify upgrading to a Pro, but also just far enough away that I keep considering it.

He literally said in his post he is on paternity leave so is not working..... so it won't be reported by him via Kotaku

Death Stranding has no confirmed PC version, so it can't be cancelled. I think a delay for Ghosts, and it becomes a cross-gen title.

So basically either a TLOU2 or Tsushima delay.

Though in the case of Tsushima, can you really delay a game with no release date?

But people expect GoT to release on PS4. Announcing that it will be A PS5 release game couls disappoint those who want it their current system.

There's no reason to assume it won't release on PS4.

It is a safe assumption, however, to believe that it will either get a PS5 enhancement or has a PS5 "version".

of course, i'm saying now is not the time to announce that. they're not gonna randomly announce their first official ps5 game, it'll be in the reveal event.

I guess you missed the part where he said " I'd be more specific if I had more details"?

But no, spreading every rumor you hear without confirmation is probably better for a journalists career, sure.

Ghost to PS5 wouldn't be surprising to me since we haven't heard much about the game. Some (me included) felt that it would be pushed to PS5 anyway—especially since it still doesn't have a set date.

I guess we will see very soon.

My only guess is that Sony has retroactively decided God of War is no longer canon to the series and they are relaunching it under the title of Axe Daddy. That seems a little too obvious, though?

(it's probably Ghost)

jason is just chiming in on the convo and i understand why he would want to break that news on the site that actually pays him. Its when the leakers flex and tease seemingly to gain twitter followers that drive me up a wall. There are so many bs artists posing as leakers who have gained a following by being cryptic and vague/

If it turns out that GoT was moved to PS5, it's not what I'd call unexpected going off the fact 90% of the replies in this thread are guessing that exact thing.

It's gotta be TLOU2.

I'm also echoing the sentiment that I might as well wait to play it on PS5.
