Mighty No. 9 fans may need to wait until next year to get their hands on the game as a number of retailers have changed the release date of the side-scrolling game to December 2016.

While this doesn’t constitute an official delay, Deep Silver pushed back the release date of Mighty No. 9 to September 15 just days before it was supposed to launch. The reason for the delay was to give the game some more time in the oven as a new playable character will be added as well as support for additional languages.

We highly doubt we’d have to wait until December 2016 to play Mighty No. 9 as we’re sure this date is more of a placeholder for its official release date. But going from an April release to a September release was already painful enough. Having to wait until next year is going try our patience, although we’re sure it’ll all be worth it.
