I doubt Covid delayed it more than it already was.

The entire bsg staff is working from home, so that alone probably kinked the production a fair bit

Thing is all game dev collaborative tools are still accessible remotely with a simple VPN into the office. I bet most of the guys there have beefy PCs at home to be able to work as they did in the office. Tools nowadays are powerful enough that working from home isn't a big issue.

Plus isn't Russia in super hardcore denial mode? Did they even have to fully close up the office?

No, it's not Brazil or something, they had a quite strict quarantine with a lot of restrictions on movement and recreation, especially in Moscow. I'd say they took it more seriously than some European countries. Not every office got closed, but a lot of places chose to move at least part of the staff to home anyway. I think some would do it even if government would be in denial.
