IO Interactive had already pushed the game\u2019s overall release from March to May to ensure maximum polish, and this latest move proves they aren\u2019t willing to compromise on quality.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the Switch 2 holdup, the studio hit social media to double down on its commitment to delivering a top-tier experience across all supported hardware.
