Mount and Blade II: Bannerlord was announced way back in 2012, but despite Taleworlds showing it off at E3 in June and their plans to show off more at Gamescom next week, a release date or window has yet to be announced. And it won’t be announced anytime soon. In a post on Steam, they explain why. 

Here's everything we know about Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord. 

“We have not disclosed a release date so far because it does not exist,” Taleworlds Explain. “We don’t work like that. We are not a company who sets a timeline to release a product and then works to meet that deadline. We are TaleWorlds Entertainment: we create games because we love making them, and we want them to be the best games that we can possibly make. We think that our fans don’t deserve less than our best efforts, our total commitment.
