Nintendo announced one of the returns that some fans were waiting for a lot, that of the turn-based strategy series Advance Wars. However, Nintendo decided to delay the official date again, but now indefinitely. Well, more than 3 months after its planned premiere, another date has not yet been announced, but a source would reveal that there are still several months to go.

The expected return would be through Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp, a remastering that included the first 2 titles in the series and was scheduled for April 8, 2022. However, Nintendo announced a delay and has not talked about a new release date since then; in fact, in a recent meeting with investors he suggested that the title could well be delayed until 2023 and it seems that is what will end up happening.

doAdvance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp will it be delayed until 2023?

We say this because a user has just appeared on Twitter, EnterZelmanwhich refers that he received a notification about his preorder of the title, which would have been delayed until February 2023, precisely on February 24, 2023, a date that curiously falls on a Friday, days when Nintendo usually launches its titles.

If the above makes you doubt about the possibility of this happening, you should know that the online store responsible for the message and the presale in question is cool shopa store that, according to gamexplainwas the one that correctly leaked the release date of Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition.

Despite this, we remind you that this is unofficial information, so we recommend you take it as such: something unconfirmed by Nintendo, since it is not ruled out that it is simply a tentative date and that in the end the title go on sale sooner.

Got an email about my Advance Wars preorder. They’re now expecting it to ship in February. It’s not official info but yeah

Why did Nintendo delay Advance Wars: 1+2 Reboot?

Also, we remind you that Nintendo last March decided to postpone the launch of Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp originally due to “recent world events”, referring to the war between Ukraine and Russia, which began precisely on February 24 and has not ended until today.

Some people understood Nintendo’s decision, but others wondered why Nintendo hasn’t released the title even though it’s been several months.

As we mentioned, the war between Ukraine and Russia continues to develop since both nations have not reached an agreement to end the conflict.

In case you missed it: fan had access to Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp despite Nintendo delaying the game.

why delay Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp and not other Nintendo games? Well, you should know that this game not only has warfare, but in the game there is Blue Moon, one of the 5 main war forces in the game, it is clearly designed from the Soviet Union and Russia, a country involved in the war of real life.

That said, it’s not just empathy for the situation (a war game during when there’s a real-life war affecting thousands of families), but it could be a detail that, given the circumstances, some players might associate with Russia. and find it flippant, even though it’s a fictional work of titles that originally came out decades ago.

Not to mention, the year-end release schedule for Nintendo Switch exclusives is pretty much full already, so it wouldn’t be a good thing to pile up titles without several weeks apart.

Finally, we will keep you informed.
