They didn't even say they will release the game after 1 year:
Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?
“While we do not have a set date for a full release at this moment in time, we expect that the game will be in early access for around a year. Our focus is on ensuring that the game is fun and enjoyable rather than imposing a deadline that might have a negative impact on the final product.”
But people already act like they announced a March 2021 release.
They also said they don't want to impose a deadline.The text literally says "we expect the game will be in early access for around a year.".
Yeah I know it's not a concrete evidence that it is March and it only applies to the EA label, but still. Most EA games either get out of that period within 1-3 years or never, plus the end of the EA usually means the final version is in works or end itself is the full release: I don't know a single expection to this rule. I expect the Bannerlord to be the latter category.

They said about a year they just didn't say about what year.But around a year does mean something between 6 and 18 months, at least for me. Sure it could also mean 2025 but...
Soon™Any news about the official release date of the game (Non-early access ) ?

++1Not really in any hurry, just want them to do it right......
™Soon™
Yeah I somewhat agree with this however I think they will still need few months to optimise the game. I don't think any new content is on the table at this point though. What remains is optimisation for console and last minute bug hunting.I vaguely remember someone saying that it was supposed to be a 10 month EA cycle. So I expect full release within 2 weeks
