Senior Producer Seth Luisi has posted an update on the official SOCOM website in which he announced that SOCOM: Confrontation has been delayed and will now be released on October 14, 2008.
“Unfortunately, even working late into the nights and every weekend, we’ve had to re-evaluate our schedule,” explained Luisi. “Our top priority is delivering the best SOCOM online experience possible. Tough decisions had to be made and we’ve decided to push back the release date to October 14, 2008. We just had to face the facts and do what is best for the title. Rather than sacrifice features, quality and stability, we had to do the right thing and re-adjust our schedule.”
Following this announcement, further details regarding the delay have been posted by SCEA forum poster Abigale.
“I know some of you are very upset and angry over this,” explained the forum post. “I can only apologise on behalf of everyone here and tell you that no one on the team is happy that it had to be delayed. It’s just that these things are unavoidable sometimes.”
The team is currently hard at work preparing a version of the game to be shown at E3 later this month.
