Amazon's ambitious MMO New World gets third delay, now expected in August
Amazon Game Studios' massively multiplayer online title New World has received its third delay, with the game now anticipated to release on 31st August - somewhat later than its previously announced launch window of "spring" this year.
New World was initially due to arrive last May, but saw its release pushed back to August 2020 as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. Amazon then opted to delay the game again in July, shifting the launch of both the full game and its final beta into this year.
That additional development time has so far, according to Amazon's latest New World development update, resulted in improvements to crafting and combat, as well as increased quest, weapon, and armour variety. Fishing has also been added, the map has been expanded to include the new Reekwater region, and work has been done to increase the amount of mid-game and end-game content.
