The delay isn’t an awfully long one though, with Arc System Works having set the cross-play open beta for October 14 to October 17 (with the beta client becoming available to download on October 13).
It was recently also announced that Guilty Gear Strive will be coming to Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One in Spring 2023.
Playable modes will include Tutorial Mode, Mission Mode, Survival Mode, Training Mode, VS Mode, Online Match, Combo Maker, Digital Figure, and Gallery.
The beta was originally set for mid-September– which, of course, didn’t end up happening.
