Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp has been delayed to spring 2022, Nintendo announced Friday.

"Hello, troops!" Nintendo of America tweeted. "#AdvanceWars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp, which was set to launch on 12/3, will now release for #NintendoSwitch in spring 2022.

"The game just needs a little more time for fine tuning. You'll be battling with Andy & friends soon! Thanks for your patience."

Nintendo revealed Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp at E3 2021, reviving the beloved but long dormant series. (The original Advance Wars 1 and Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising were released in September 2001 and June 2003, respectively, making them just about two decades old.)

The new release has been pitched as a pair of "from the ground up" remakes that hope to keep the gorgeous pixel art of the original games while mixing them with new 3D graphics. The bundle will include the campaigns for both games, plus up to four-player multiplayer.
