The episode was predictable to air in May, following a monthly calendar that has started in the middle of January and is hypothetical to be ending through the summer.
Pokémon: Twilight Wings fifth episode has been delayed due to logistical issues derive from the COVID-19 outbreak in Japan, it was announced today.
Currently, it has not been mention whether this delay would affect the next episodes in the series, too. Still, it’s most likely that the succession should proceed with at least one month of delay compare to the original schedule.
However, the fifth incident won’t be available until June 5, Pokémon has revealed today through its official Japanese Twitter account.
Dusk Wings is a web series featuring 6-minute long episodes and is revolving about the Galar region. The latest episode is all about Nessa, the Hulbury Gym Leader, from Sword and Shield.
Once the fifth episode gets released, the series will have two more episodes previous to reaching its end, which was initially slated for the summer.
Now that the most contemporary episode has been moved deeper into June, it’s not clear if that agenda could be kept or if it is going to face further delays.
Nintendo is in a similar position, where it is not announcing 2020 titles for Switch since it’s still figuring out how smart operational and other logistical challenges due to COVID-19 will impact their releases.
