If we had to guess - and at this point, guessing is the best anyone can do - we’d hope for a late 2022 release to keep expectations in check. Developer Full Circle hasn’t even given us a year yet, meaning that we probably still have a long wait ahead of us before we’ll be grinding and kick-flipping on our consoles anytime soon.
