Gamers and fans alike should extend their long wait for the first-person shooter "Space Hulk: Deathwing" for a few more days. Two days prior to the game's launch, publisher Focus Home Interactive and game developer Streum On Studio announced it will be delayed for a few days.

Streum On Studio is putting extra work in improving the "Space Hulk: Deathwing" and putting to bed some identified issues.
So far, the game studio had bugs fixed, improved loading times, improved general performance and applied some interface and overall optimization.

This being done, Streum On Studio is confident that gamers will experience gaming to a whole new level when "Space Hulk: Deathwing" launches in a few days.
On a separate note, the gaming community has taken the delayed launch of "Space Hulk: Deathwing" differently, according to GameSpot. Some were very disappointed with the delay and some expressed their support for the developer's decision to ask ample time to fix all the bugs.
