A crowded holiday season just got slightly less so. Take-Two Interactive announced today that BioShock 2's release date is being pushed back.
The game was originally scheduled to hit North America on November 3rd and elsewhere on October 30th. It's now expected to be released in Take-Two's 2010 fiscal year. Their fiscal year starts on November 1st so it's possible this isn't a big delay at all. Still, kinda doubt they'd make such a big announcement if the game were just being bumped a week or two.
Here's Take-Two CEO Ben Federer's explanation of the delay:
BioShock 2 is a simultaneous release for the PC, Xbox 360, and PS3 and has a new multiplayer offering and both of those features are possible culprits for the delay. Anyway, this delay is good news for any company who was also looking to release a game in late October or early November. Sucks for everyone else, though.
