Every release date change in 2026
No release-date changes are on the ledger yet. Tracking began in July 2026; the calendar syncs against IGDB every morning, and each moved date is recorded here the day it changes.

Methodology
The calendar syncs against IGDB daily. A change is recorded when a game's rendered date differs from the previous sync at its stated precision, so placeholder-day reshuffles inside the same announced window never count. Ledger start: July 2026. Dates shown honor how precisely each was announced; a game "delayed to 2027" shows the year, not an invented day.
Common questions
- How many games have been delayed in 2026?
- None recorded yet. The ledger began in July 2026 and records each change the day the calendar's daily sync sees it.
- How are delays tracked?
- The release calendar syncs against IGDB every morning. When a game's date differs from the previous day's, the old and new dates are written to a permanent ledger, shown here newest first. Changes that only reshuffle a placeholder day inside the same announced window are ignored.
