If you were hoping to get your hands on Evil West this September and start smashing your way through hordes of monstrosities, I'm afraid I have a bit of bad news to deliver. According to the latest developer update, Evil West has now been pushed back until November 20th, 2022.

"We are working our very best to achieve our vision of Evil West, and to meet your expectations," explains the brief announcement. "Evil West releases on five platforms, including multiple generations of consoles. Giving our game more polish is crucial to provide our players with not only good but also lasting memories. That's something that we've always pursued."

"We understand that game delays may be frustrating, but it's a necessary step to deliver the best experience to everyone. Thank you again for your awesome support and dedication. It drives us forward and pushes us to create the weirdest, wildest western ride for all of you."

As for what exactly you can expect to see in terms of story and gameplay once Evil West arrives, that you can get a bit of an idea of through, ironically enough, the previous release date trailer. Have a gander:

Should there be any more delays or setbacks, I'll make sure to let you know. For now, however, I'll leave you to learn more about Evil West over at the official website. Enjoy!
