Big Ant Studios has announced that AFL 23‘s Xbox release date has been delayed again, with physical stock now expected to hit retailers in July/early August.
AFL 23 XBOX Announcement
We will be distributing XBox disks to retailers at the end of July/Early August, as we approach that time we will have a more definitive date.
We sincerely appreciate the support and patience of the XBox community.— Big Ant Studios (@BigAntStudios) June 16, 2023
The new delay pushes the Xbox version from its potential June launch window to August, with PlayStation and PC players having access to the game since it was first released on May 4. It’s another blow for Big Ant Studios, the AFL and AFL 23, with the game launching to a mostly negative reception (I scored it a 5 in my review), and although the game has improved since then, there’s still plenty of work to be done, not to mention the radio silence around the much-vaunted Pro Team mode.
Are you still waiting on the Xbox version of AFL 23? Let us know in the comments or on social media.
