The reports that surfaced last week from several major retailers were correct after all; Comcept has confirmed that Mega Man inspired action-platformer Mighty No. 9 has been delayed into 2016.
A message sent to the game’s Kickstarter backers said that the “release delay is going to be announced for the game at gamescom 2015.”
“As we have communicated in the updates to our backers, all of the core content for the game is developed and in a complete state. However, there are still bugs and issues pertaining to the online features that are included in the game. These bugs and issues have a direct affect on enjoyment of the game, so a decision was made to work these issues out before release. ”
Keiji Inafune’s studio says that it will send out another platform survey once it’s settled on a final release date.
