Xbox exclusive “Contraband” reportedly delayed for a year
, by Thibaut
Over the past few years, Xbox has announced a number of projects that seem to have gone through quite some troubles. Those include Fable, Avowed, The Outer Worlds 2, State of Decay 3, and the latest to join them has been Contraband.
Less eagerly awaited than other Xbox exclusives, Contraband is a co-op open-world game developed by Just Cause and Mad Max creators Avalanche Studios. It takes place in a fictional universe called Bayan in the mid-1970s. Apart from these few details and the trailer released two years ago, not much is known about the game.
Today, SomosXbox website reports that the game has been postponed internally and will be absent from the next Xbox Games Showcase that will take place on June 11. We’re talking about a delay of at least a year from Avalanche’s original target release.
