The XIII Remake Has Been Delayed On Switch

The XIII remake due on November 10 has been delayed for one system--the Nintendo Switch. Publisher Microids has announced the delay, explaining that the game will now release in 2021.

A specific date or time frame within 2021 has not been nailed down.

This news has been announced alongside the release of a new trailer, which focuses on the game's weapons. If you've played the original release, you'll recognize these guns--but they look better than ever now.

XIII is based on a Belgian comic series. You play as an amnesiac killer, who awakens on a beach and discovers that they're being chased by the FBI for the assassination of the US president. The original game was published by Ubisoft for PS2, Xbox, GameCube, and PC in 2003.

This is not the first major 2020 shooter to be delayed on Nintendo's console--a Switch version of Doom Eternal still has not been released.
