Earlier this year, players got a chance to check out a closed beta for Disney Speedstorm, but it seems those looking forward to a full release are going to be waiting a while. The game’s official Twitter account has revealed that the racer is being pushed back to sometime in 2023. From the wording of the press release, it seems the PC and console versions of the game will be releasing simultaneously, but nothing has been confirmed as of this writing. Developer Gameloft has also promised that fans can expect to see regular updates “over the next several weeks.”
