Amazon Games announced today that it is pushing back New World‘s release by a month, sliding its original August 31 debut to September 28.

New World is an MMORPG that has players fighting, crafting, and exploring a fantasy world inspired by the Americas during its colonization. It recently had a closed beta, and Amazon Games notes that the feedback from this is why it’s taking some extra time to release this game.
