So, in an effort to do things right, the developers made the difficult decision to delay the game to ensure players get the quality necessary to appreciate all aspects of the game. Especially since online mode is crucial when it comes to fighting games ! Exchanging blows against the computer… it's fun for two minutes… That's why the quality of the online mode has to be perfect to allow players to enjoy a good gaming experience.
Now there is only one thing left for us to tell you: patience is the mother of virtue!
