Battleborn Delayed Until May, Out Of Take Two’s Fiscal Year

Battleborn needs more time, it seems. Gearbox and 2K have announced that it has been delayed out of February and the publisher’s fiscal year.

Battleborn was slated to arrive on February 9, 2016. It now lands on May 3, 2016. 

For more on Battleborn, you can read a recent hands-on preview. Take Two will be holding its second quarter earnings call later this afternoon. 

Our Take
This is a good decision, even if it does have an impact on Take Two’s current fiscal year. As I mentioned in my preview, Battleborn has great ingredients, but they aren’t coming together quite well enough just yet. This buys Gearbox more time to get it right.
