"South Park" fans would likely have to wait until April for "South Park: The Fractured But Whole," Ubisoft announced the news during the company's latest earnings report.

The game publisher told reporters that it is expected to arrive between April 2017 to March 2018. The game has had delays before, starting with the expected January to March 2017 release window that was pushed to a later date. The studio did not offer any explanations for the delay.

Ubisoft previously told "South Park" fans that the company is making sure to meet its expectations. The role playing game (RPG) is based on the animated series and is a follow-up to "South Park: Stick of Truth," which was released in 2014.

The game was set for a December 2016 release, but the company pushed it back to the beginning of 2017. The first "South Park" game also had some trouble with its launch.

Despite delays, "South Park: Stick of Truth" eventually became a success. Thanks to the show's cult following, the game was able to sell over 5 million copies. Ubisoft believes that the upcoming "The Fractured But Whole" game will do better.

The game will be available for the Xbox One and PS4 console. The company will also release a PC version for Microsoft's Windows operating system shortly after.

The game will feature twelve superhero classes, namely the Brutalist, Blaster, Speedster, Elementalist, Gadgeteer, Mystic, Cyborg, Psychic, Assassin, Commender, Netherborn and Karate Kid. Players gain control over The New Kid, who is the main protagonist in the upcoming "South Park" game.
