Homeworld 3 delayed again, now expected in February 2024

Gearbox has announced a significant delay for Homeworld 3, moving the long-in-the-works real-time strategy sequel's launch out of the "first half of 2023" and into February 2024.

Homeworld 3 is being developed by Blackbird Interactive and marks the first new numbered game in the series since Relic Entertainment's Homeworld 2 in 2003. However, news of its progress has been erratic following its official unveiling by publisher Gearbox in August 2019.

After an extended silence, the tail-end of 2021 bought a Q4 2022 launch window, but that then slipped to the "first half of 2023" so Blackbird could deliver the game "at the highest quality". Now, however, with time to hit its most recent release target rapidly running out, Gearbox has announced another delay, this time shifting Homeworld 3's release into early next year.
