While there is no explanation regarding the delay in release, it will be safe to assume that the developers are looking to iron out every possible bug before the game comes to PS4 and Xbox One. Besides, the developers will have to adjust to the tech that the PS4 and Xbox One run on.
When the game was initially released, players had to adjust the graphics for PC, even when they had the best graphics cards. This delay, just like the previous ones is most likely a precautionary measure.
Since the game was launched, players have been giving extremely positive feedback to the game. The game currently has 124,308 positive reviews on Steam. For now, the game is available for PC, PS5, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X. It will be available for Nintendo Switch on July 25, 2023.
