This does not seem to bode well considering how close to launch it is. Most likely explanation seems that they needed the resources for the new gen versions. Getting an Avengers vibe from this game tbh.
Standard Edition ($69.99)
Deluxe Edition ($89.99)
Collector’s Edition ($299.99)
This is what gets me. The audacity to charge your first adopters and most passionate fans these prices when we all know we can wait 4 months and it'll be discounted to $50.
I guess they didn't like that the PS4/XOne prices would be $59.99
I like how PC is the only version would be $59.99
probably making poor sales numbers worse
It may be next gen (current gen) but it looks like last gen
That's a good thing, but overall, the game just looks uninspired and boring. Easy pass for me.
Looks like Warner Bros is ready to cut and run from its games division.
That's a shame. I have always liked last-gen versions of games. My favourite being Rise of the Tomb Raider on xbox 360.
It's like a farewell lap for the previous generation
Huge shame but it is what it is
Considering it was a crossgen game until know it doesn't seem like it will benefit from being next-gen only, most likely it was just running to poor on last gen.
I don't think ditching PS4 and Xbox One versions could make this game a true 9th gen, it's still Unreal Engine 4 powered.
No, it's still going to look and feel like a cross-gen game, just without the last-gen release. It's too far into development to make it a true 9th gen experience.
Hmm, understandable. The combat in the preview looked unfinished/unpolished. I was more interested in this than Suicide Squad.
Forgot this game existed.
