The developer of MechWarrior 5 Mercenaries has delayed the launch of the game on Steam to avoid getting trampled on by the behemoth that is Cyberpunk 2077.
Piranha Games said the recent delay of Cyberpunk to 10th December 2020 forced it to reconsider its plan to release MechWarrior 5 Mercenaries on Steam and GoG, as well as its Heroes of the Inner Sphere DLC, on the same day.
“Any developer wants their titles to get as much attention as possible, and obviously sharing a release date with Cyberpunk was less than optimal,” Piranha said.
