The Last Guardian & ICO HD Collection Delayed
Some days, they just suck.
Sony has confirmed the delay of their upcoming titles, The Last Guardian and ICO/Shadow of the Colossus HD Collection, from their respective release dates.
Announced on the
EU PS Blog, Sony's Phil Lynch stated,
“SCEE can confirm that we are officially delaying the release of ICO/Shadow of the Colossus Collection and The Last Guardian from their respective launch timeframes of Spring 2011 and Holiday/Winter 2011. We will provide more information regarding release timing at a later date.”
All is lost.
Team Ico lead man Fumito Ueda issued an apology as well.
“I announced at last year’s Tokyo Game Show that the release timing of The Last Guardian which is currently being developed would be holiday 2011.
“However, to provide more challenging and better quality of content to users and to fulfill First Party Studio’s obligations, I decided to postpone its release timing.
“All the members of my production team are working together at a fast pace to develop and release the game in First Party Studio quality.
“I sincerely apologize to all the customers who have been waiting for “The Last Guardian” for so long, but I beg for your patience. I will also announce the new release timing at a later time.”
There might still be hope for the ICO/Shadows HD Collection as its release date was still early enough in the year that we could still see it before 2012. The Last Guardian however, assuredly has a mid-2012 release date now.
Bumstown for sure.
