The Last of Us Part 2 will be out on June 19, 2020, which makes it a small delay, or roughly 20 days from the original release date. Ghost of Tsushima, meanwhile, has been pushed back a little under a month from June 26, 2020, to July 17. This should give some breathing room for both of these first-party games that are being released by Sony Interactive Entertainment.
While Sony has announced a release date for The Last of Us Part 2, they haven’t done the same for Marvel’s Iron Man VR, which was also delayed. There doesn’t appear to be any official update for the game which was scheduled to launch in April and also had a rating issued by ESRB confirming it is quite close to being done. The game was also expected to get a demo but that didn’t materialize after it was delayed.
