Throne And Liberty Release Delayed To Third Quarter Of 2023?

Rumors have been swirling regarding a potential delay in the release of Throne and Liberty to the third quarter of 2023, as reported in a Business Korea article. It's important to note that this information has not been officially confirmed by NCSoft, and as of now, the game's official channels have not updated the release date.

The underlying reason for this speculation is rooted in the notion that a June release would put Throne and Liberty in direct competition with the highly anticipated Diablo IV release. According to many analysts, Throne and Liberty might not be seen as a strong contender against Diablo IV. For those who have been eagerly awaiting the game since its early days as Lineage Eternal, the prospect of a delay may not come as a shock. Fortunately, a few extra months of wait may not seem too long for dedicated fans.

However, it's worth highlighting that, as per the Business Korea article, Throne and Liberty remains one of the most eagerly anticipated PC games from the company in a long time. Additionally, the global release by Amazon Games is expected to yield strong results in the global gaming markets and potentially pave the way for NCSoft's entry into the console market.

Even if the release delay does turn out to be true, there is a prevailing sense of optimism surrounding the game. Gamers and industry observers are looking forward to the game's eventual launch and its potential impact on the gaming landscape.
