Redout dogfighter spin-off Space Assault has been delayed indefinitely

Redout: Space Assault

Redout: Space Assault is arcade space battle, coupling the trademark Redout adrenaline with the thrill of combat. Outsmart, outmaneuver, overpower, outclass your opponents in lightning-fast, adrenaline-inducing single-player space combat.

34BigThings, the studio behind 2016's excellent anti-grav racer Redout, has announced that its upcoming dogfighter spin-off Space Assault has been delayed out of its previously anticipated Q1 2019 release window.

Redout: Space Assault was first revealed during E3 2018, and a promising gameplay trailer emerged toward the end of last year. The intergalactic shooter was clearly a very different beast to its predecessor, but 34BigThings promised that the two shared the same "adrenaline rush, high skill ceiling, frantic pace and popping aesthetics".

At the time, the developer said it was aiming to release Space Assault during Q1 2019, a window that it obviously missed. However, 34BigThings has now broken its silence in a new blog post, officially delaying the game, and even going as far as to say that it's unsure "when [it] will come out, and whether it will come out this year or not."
