Take-Two Interactive has announced that they will be delaying the release of Bioshock 2 until their 2010 fiscal year which is between November 1st 2009 and October 31st 2010. Just like when Batman Arkham Asylum was delayed, the reason for delaying is “to provide additional development time for the title.”
The previous release date for the game was November 3rd, just 4 month away. Before you question the date because it’s technically within their 2010 fiscal year, Take-Two always considered this game to be within their 2009 fiscal year because they would have received sales of the game before November 3rd.
With this news of a delayed release date also came modifications to Take-Two’s projected earnings for their 2009 fiscal year. Previously, their projections were that they expect to take $1.05 billion to $1.15 billion in overall revenues, however, due to the delays of Mafia 2, Bioshock 2 and Red Dead Redemption, they have now said that they expect to take between $960 million and $1 billion.
It’s a shame that all these games have been delayed till their 2010 fiscal year, however, considering the amount of great games that are due for release on the run up to Christmas, I certainly won’t run out of games to play. Plus with these games being delayed, the line up for 2010 is already looking even better.
