The game was supposed to be released on June 2, but now will appear no earlier than July 14.
The transfer was reported by the official Twitter studio.

The temporary closure of the studio became known at the end of March – then one of the developers found Covid-19, and the company had to quickly switch to a remote mode of operation.
In addition, on April 8, an emergency mode was introduced in Japan – so far without fines, but with recommendations for self-isolation. On April 20, the country recorded a record number of virus victims per day – 25 people.
Meanwhile, Kojima himself maintains a prolonged silence in social networks. His account mainly retweets various promotions related to the game, and the last tweet with his participation appeared on April 4 – after serving BAFTA.
