Sony delays PS5 fight stick due to production issues

Sony has postponed the release of its FlexStrike wireless fight stick for the PlayStation 5. The accessory was originally set to launch in August with Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls but now faces an indefinite delay.

Sony announced the change in timing on the PlayStation Blog. The company cited unexpected production delays as the reason and said it is taking extra time to deliver the best experience.

"We wanted to share an update on the launch timing for FlexStrike wireless fight stick. Due to unexpected production delays, FlexStrike wireless fight stick will launch at a later date," the post stated. No new release window was provided.

Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls remains on track for its August 6 launch. Pre-order customers will receive updates through their retailers.
