Good luck launching a new ip in the month where all big releases decided it was the perfect time to delay their launch to.

It's not a new IP. It's based in the Pillars of Eternity universe.

Then I wish them even more luck with their launch. I don't think that went well last time.

Well, if there's one release no one wants to be near, it's GTA6, so February looks far better by comparison. And for me personally, I couldn't care less about Assassin's Creed or Monster Hunter. Kingdom Come, Rift of the NecroDancer, and Civilization are more likely to be competing for my time.

What about January? Looking pretty quiet over there.

It’s not really a good window since gifting/leisure budgets usually got emptied around Christmas/New Year.

They should wait to see when the next Horizon game is coming out and not release then.
