Square Enix delays Marvel's Avengers and Final Fantasy 7 remake

2020 will see the releases of Square Enix’s Final Fantasy 7 remake and Marvel’s Avengers. Unfortunately, both games will be released later than expected.

Announced today, the Final Fantasy 7 remake has been pushed to April 10. The game was originally slated for a March 3 release. In a statement, producer Yoshinori Kitase said, “We are making this tough decision in order to give ourselves a few extra weeks to apply final polish to the game and to deliver you with the best possible experience.” This places Final Fantasy 7 remake closer to the release of Cyberpunk 2077.

Marvel’s Avengers, which was originally slated for a May 15th release, will be unveiled on September 4. “When we set out to bring you our vision for Marvel’s Avengers, we committed to delivering an original story-driven campaign, engaging co-op, and compelling content for years to come. To that end, we will spend this additional development time focusing on fine tuning and polishing the game to the high standards our fans expect and deserve,” Crystal Dynamics said in a press statement. Marvel’s Avengers was announced at last year’s E3.
