The delay of the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 racer, coming from Project Gotham Racing developer Bizarre Creations, is said to provide "more time to enhance the game's innovative and distinctive online multiplayer gameplay." A new date was not provided.

"The additional time will allow the studio to fully optimize the vision they set out to create for Blur including a distinctive and groundbreaking multiplayer mode that will appeal to a broad audience," explained Activision Publishing CEO Mike Griffith.
