Deadly Creatures officially delayed
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
Retailers such as Best Buy and Amazon began to modify the release date of Deadly Creatures a couple of days ago, which hinted that the game would be delayed. Deadly Creatures was scheduled to ship in December this year, but this is officially no longer the case. The title, like the retailers suggested, should be releasing in February now according to THQ.
Deadly Creatures also suffered from a previous delay, as the game initially was going to be available in October. On the bright side, the extra months before release will definitely allow the development team to add some extra polish to the game.
