Wandering Sword PS5 Launch Delayed to January 2027

Publisher Clouded Leopard said adjustments to the physical release schedule to align console launches prompted the postponement.

Overview

  • Clouded Leopard posted on its official Twitter/X account that the PS5 release of Wandering Sword has been moved to January 21, 2027.
  • The console launch had been set for May 28, 2026 after a State of Play reveal in November 2025.
  • The publisher attributed the change to adjustments in the physical-version schedule and a decision to coordinate simultaneous releases across consoles and offered an apology to players.
  • Clouded Leopard confirmed an Xbox Series X|S version and said Nintendo Switch release plans have been revised while the PC version remains available.
  • The delay, announced just days before the planned PS5 debut, surprised players and press and may affect preorders and physical distributors as the publisher works to align multi-platform launches.
