The third-person action game The Cursed Crusade has been pushed to October 25, from its previously set date of October 11. No reason was given for the delay, but Atlus and developer Kylotonn Entertainment paired the announcement with a new trailer that sheds light on the game's story.

After all, the delay (via Rock Paper Shotgun) places the game just a week after Batman: Arkham City, and right alongside Battlefield 3. This doesn't seem like the healthiest place for a relatively obscure hack-and-slash. We're not sure this is the best strategic move, but we can't help but be impressed by Atlus' courage.
