Not content with having
delayed the
game once already, Bandai Namco and Level - 5 recently issued the following statement
relating to yet another
delay of the upcoming and highly anticipated Ni No Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom.
Factors that could cause Blizzard Entertainment's actual future results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward - looking statements set forth in this release include, but are not limited to, sales of Blizzard Entertainment's titles, shifts in consumer spending trends, the seasonal and cyclical nature of the interactive
game market, Blizzard Entertainment's ability to predict consumer preferences among competing hardware platforms (including next - generation hardware), declines in software pricing, product returns and price protection, product
delays, retail acceptance of Blizzard Entertainment's products, adoption rate and availability of new hardware and
related software, industry competition, rapid changes in technology and industry standards, protection of proprietary rights, litigation against Blizzard Entertainment, maintenance of relationships with key personnel, customers, vendors and third - party developers, domestic and international economic, financial and political conditions and policies, foreign exchange rates, integration of recent acquisitions and the identification of suitable future acquisition opportunities, Activision Blizzard's success in integrating the operations of Activision Publishing and Vivendi Games in a timely manner, or at all, and the combined company's ability to realize the anticipated benefits and synergies of the transaction to the extent, or in the timeframe, anticipated.
Well, we've got a couple of tantalizing pieces of news
relating to Rockstar's much - anticipated much -
delayed western sequel to what is arguably one of the greatest
games of all time.
