Originally scheduled to launch on August 6 alongside MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls, the FlexStrike fighting controller has ultimately been postponed by Sony.

The Japanese manufacturer confirmed the delay due to "unexpected production delays." For now, the company hasn’t announced a new release date but promises to keep players informed as soon as possible.

"We’re working to ensure we deliver the best possible experience to our players with FlexStrike, so we’re taking extra time to put the finishing touches on the product. We apologize for this delay and look forward to bringing the FlexStrike experience to the community when it launches.

Players who have pre-ordered FlexStrike wireless fight stick from direct.playstation.com can check their order status through the website and will receive communications regarding their order. Players who pre-ordered through another retailer should look for updates directly from that retailer or contact them with any questions."

As a reminder, the FlexStrike goes for €199.99.
