That seems to be the main motivator, according to the studio&#8217;s explanation.\u00a0In announcing the new date, Double Helix&#8217;s post reads\u00a0(in part):<\/p>\n<p> We\u2019ve been hard at work on compelling end-game features we believe are important to include at launch. These features won\u2019t be ready for the Spring timeframe that we had communicated. With that in mind, we will release New World on August 31, 2021. With this extra time we\u2019ll be able to add these substantial improvements while polishing and fine tuning the whole game before we open Aeternum\u2019s shores to the world. <\/p>\n<p>Though the delay is certainly news people should know, New World is more than its release date.
