- Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra has been pushed back to early 2026.
- Many fans already anticipated a delay due to the lack of significant marketing since 2024.
- Developer Skydance Games states that this delay will help the team polish the game for the best possible experience.
Following the success of Marvel’s Cinematic Universe, the company is expanding into the gaming industry. Big hits like Spider-Man 2 are just the beginning, with major titles based on IPs like Iron Man, Black Panther, and more expected to follow.
Among the many known games, Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra created plenty of buzz following its announcement. However, the game has suffered a sudden delay today, with Skydance Games confirming an updated 2026 release window for the title.
Why it matters: Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra is expected to be a major showcase for Unreal Engine 5, and the game is also being led by Uncharted creator and industry veteran Amy Hennig.
According to the studio’s latest X post, Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra will now launch in early 2026. The team has made the decision to push the title back to focus on quality and ensure fans receive the best possible experience.
Because the game had seen next to no marketing over the last few months, this delay does not come as too huge a surprise. Many already expected Skydance Games’ project to face a delay this year.
Still, this does not mean that the team won’t have new gameplay or footage to share in 2025. The next look at Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra could be right around the corner, with events like Summer Game Fest and the Xbox Games Showcase potentially giving Skydance Games a major stage to show off its work.
The title will also compete with the likes of GTA 6 in early 2026, so Skydance Games must do everything it can to deliver a compelling experience to the fans. Fortunately, Amy Hennig’s leadership inspires a lot of confidence in the project.
