After an initial delay due to stock availability, AFL 23 was moved to a May 4 release date. However, days before the game was set to launch, Big Ant made the announcement that the Xbox version of the game had been delayed to sometime in June.
AFL 23’s poor launch has been well documented, but Big Ant has been working hard to fix a lot of the issues that plagued the game’s release. In my AFL 23 review, I said that “When AFL 23 delivers on its on-field vision it’s the best Aussie Rules video game out there, but the lack of execution and content means that it’s not quite the contender it could have been,” scoring it a 5.
