We'll now have to wait an extra three months before we can start unlocking the Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden achievements, as Don't Nod and Focus Entertainment have delayed the action-RPG to February 2024.
In a press release, Don't Nod and Focus announced that Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden would miss its original November 7 release date "as the market is experiencing an intense release cycle for AAA titles on PC and consoles at the end of the year." Instead, Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden will now launch on February 13, 2024, for Xbox Series X|S, PS5, and PC.

"We are convinced that a commercial release of Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden during a less saturated period will give it the attention it deserves," the press release reads.

If Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden was to launch as planned in November, it would be competing against the likes of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Like a Dragon: The Man Who Erased His Name, Persona 5 Tactica, Super Mario RPG remake, Tales of Arise: Beyond the Dawn DLC and, of course, Bluey: The Video Game.

However, February 2024 is also starting to look pretty busy, with Persona 3 Reload, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Tomb Raider Remastered, and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League already on the docket.
