Developer Skydance Video games and writer Plaion have introduced that their upcoming action-adventure sport Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra has been delayed past early 2026, and no new launch date or window has been revealed.
In a put up on social media, Skydance says that it is determined to delay Marvel 1943 with the intention to “absolutely notice [its] imaginative and prescient” for the sport, and to make sure it “meets the extent of high quality that [Skydance’s] crew, gamers, and followers anticipate”.
Marvel 1943 is the second main 2026 launch to be delayed within the final day or two; simply yesterday, Rockstar delayed the industry-straddling Grand Theft Auto 6 to November subsequent yr (for a lot the identical purpose as Skydance, it appears).
Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra was first revealed again in March final yr, at which level it was additionally given a 2025 launch window (which was, admittedly, quite broad). In July 2024, Embracer-owned writer Plaion signed on to publish the sport.
Nevertheless, again in Might, Skydance introduced that Marvel 1943 had been delayed to a while early subsequent yr, so that is the second time the sport has been pushed again. Let’s hope this does not point out bother at Fort Skydance.
Regardless of being revealed nearly two years in the past, we have but to see any sort of gameplay footage for Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra, so we technically do not actually know precisely what sort of sport it will likely be.
We do know that the sport will boast 4 playable characters, specifically Captain America, Black Panther, Howling Commandos soldier Gabriel Jones, and Wakandan spy Nanali, though how (and even whether or not) they’re going to differ by way of gameplay stays to be seen.
Provided that Marvel 1943 boasts the involvement of Uncharted creator Amy Hennig, I would wager the sport will observe an analogous construction; anticipate a lot of linear setpieces, loads of movie-style storytelling, and plenty of Marvel cameos and fan service.
We do not but know when Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra will launch, however when it does, it is presumably coming to PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Sequence X|S (though platforms have not been introduced both). Keep tuned for extra.
