Publisher THQ announced today that it has delayed Volition's Red Faction: Guerrilla (PC, PS3, 360) and Vigil's Darksiders: Wrath of War (PS3, 360) until its next fiscal year, which begins April 1, 2009 and ends on March 31, 2010.

Previously, both titles were expected to arrive on store shelves within the publisher's current fiscal year, which means they would have hit retailers by March 31, 2009.

No reason was provided for the delays, though the company lowered its net sales expectations for the current year by $125 million to compensate.

Judging by the short lived MP beta for Red Faction 3, they have a LOT of work to do in terms of optimization. It's a fun game but the performance is abysmal due to the huge amount of calculations being done on-the-fly because of the destructible environments.
