Fans are definitley itching to know when Bethesda will formally announce the confirmed "Dishonored 2" release date.
Reports have been suggesting that a 2016 launch for the new title has been given a green light. However, rumor has it that the developers are planning to delay the release to a much later date.
"'Dishonored 2' is originally planned for a release sometime in 2016," VCPost reported.
"However, speculations have emerged that it can take much longer than that. The rumors are believed to come from Matty Schoeder, a YouTube user who was present at the E3 conference. Schoeder noticed Smith talking to the president of Arkane Studios, Ralph Colantonio. The latter is said to announce the development of 'Dishonored 2,' along with some hints of its possible delay."
"The most notable sign is the removal of 'Spring' out of the 'Spring 2016' in the game's presentation. With that, it leaves the notion that 'Dishonored 2' might just come out late 2016 or, if possible, early 2017," the site added.
Other "Dishonored 2" release date rumors are hinting that Bethesda could just be doing more work into the new title and could just be planning for a flexible 2016 launch instead. Moving it to an earlier or later Spring 2016 release date could give them a marketing leverage since a lot of new releases are scheduled on the same timeframe.
"Dishonored 2" will reportedly focus on Emily Kaldwin, the young empress who was an unplayable character.
