Prison Architect 2 has been delayed to May

Prison Architect 2’s release date has been delayed, publisher Paradox and developer Double Eleven have announced.

Previously scheduled to hit PS5, Xbox Series X/S and Steam on March 26, the 3D successor to 2015’s hit prison management simulator has been pushed back by six weeks.

“After careful consideration, we have made the decision to delay the release of Prison Architect 2 to 7 May 2024,” reads a message attributed to the Prison Architect 2 team.

“While we are already confident in the game, this extra time will enable us to fix more bugs and further optimise the game for all platforms. Although sticking to the original launch date was an option, we feel that taking this additional time is necessary to ensure that we offer you a smoother experience from day one.”
