The Wii U version of Batman: Arkham Origins and Nintendo 3DS version of Batman Arkham Origins Blackgate have both been delayed, Warner Bros. has confirmed to VideoGamer.com.

Both games will now arrive in Europe on November 8, two weeks after the release of the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita SKUs next Friday, October 25.

In addition, the boxed PC release of Batman: Arkham Origins has also seen a setback, again pushed back to November 8. A digital PC version will still be available to purchase next Friday, however.

Reasons for the delay have not been revealed by Warner Bros., although it’s reported to have only affected Europe. All versions of the game are still expected to be available in North America on October 25.
