Alpha Protocol Officially Delayed to 2010

October 6, 2009 11:40 AM

While an Alpha Protocol delay has been rumored for some time, it took publisher Sega until today--October 6, the day that Obsidisan's espionage role-playing game was supposed to be on store shelves--to confirm that the title is now due in 2010.

Official word on the delay emerged via the game's official site, ~~which lists the PC and Xbox 360 editions for release on May 6 and the PlayStation 3 version for "Spring."~~ Amusingly, Joystiq notes that the site was briefly listing all three as "out now."

Update: The game's official site has once again been revised, with all three versions--PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360--now listed for "Spring, 2010."

This marks the second major delay for the game, originally due in February 2009.

Shame. Sega is really doing a shitty job with the PR. They couldn't even properly notify their customers of the delay.

This long of a delay for a second time worries me too especially after that leak.

  It must have been a very recent decision too, since there's been magazine ads in at least the last month or two worth of gaming magazines.
