Sony delays PS5 launch game Destruction AllStars until next year

Sony has delayed one of their PlayStation 5 launch titles: Destruction AllStars. 

The action-racing title was revealed during Sony’s PlayStation 5 Showcase as one of the titles poised to bolster the next-gen console’s launch lineup alongside Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Demon’s Souls and Sackboy: A New Adventure.

While the title was set to launch on November 12th, originally priced at a staggering £70, the title has now been shifted into a February 2021 release date and will be included with customers’ PlayStation Plus online subscriptions.

“Destruction AllStars is a multiplayer game that’s at its best when you’re competing with gamers online from all around the world,” said Sony’s director of product development, Pete Smith.

“We want as many people as possible to experience the mayhem on PS5, and what better way to do that than to provide the game to our PlayStation Plus members? Next week, we’ll return with a brand-new trailer and more details on the game, so you’ll know exactly what to expect when you download it in February.”

“This may be disappointing news for some of you who were looking to play the game at launch, but we hope you understand the decision.”

With Destruction AllStars now being included with PlayStation Plus memberships, Sony will be refunding people who decided to pre-order the next-gen racer.
