SouthPeak announced it is moving the release of Two Worlds II for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC to January 2011 in North America. The publisher said it will take more time polishing the game for its new launch.

"We understand that this is not great news for those of you eager for an October release and we can understand that you might feel that our European cousins' potentially getting the game before you is frustrating to say the least," a spokesperson said in a statement.

"However, there's a reason for everything and although we feel that the game is truly at 'AAA' level, which reason is that we want Two Worlds II to be absolutely flawless when it launches in the North American market.

"Although we could bring the game to market earlier in order to take advantage of the holiday buying season, we felt that we would do a better service to you by making sure that the game you want is absolutely as it should be," the spokesperson added.

"It's vital to us that we always give you the best possible information and this is the reason that we haven't commented on the date before now; we did not want to say something to you, only to have that information change once again. Now, we are in a position to confirm the January release date."

SouthPeak also issued a warning to those looking to potentially download the game illegally or import it.

"For those that have said that they will torrent or import the game because they simply cannot wait, there's nothing that we can do to stop you," the publisher added. "However, please remember that by pirating the game, you are hurting those who worked hard to make the game for you, reducing the chance of another game in the future.

"By importing the game, you're paying more money for something that if you can wait, you'll be able to buy in January at a cheaper price and that will have benefited from heavyweight Quality Assurance for the North American market."

... wait. So the game is not polished enough for an American release, but "good enough" for the Europeans?

Is that an insult? Am I supposed to feel inferior now because its just about good enough for me, but the Americans get something of higher quality?

Or do they need to censor something? *smirks*

... Damnit.

If that's happening, then I'm going to Gamestop and getting a refund on my preorder. I'll re-reserve it in December.

Feh.

Wow, I am insulted.
So these people think it's alright to favour North America over us 'Europeans', seriously?
Even though the game is essentially at "AAA level", the fact that they think Americans deserve better is simply insulting.
I call BS on this.

Looking forward to the mechanics of this game, spell creation in particular.

Just hope the rest of the game doesn't suck as much as the first Two Worlds!

Welll... I wanted to play this game, and might have even bought it if people said it was vastly improved over the first one, but I have so many games to buy this holiday season.

So for me, the delayed release date is actually a good thing. Now I can get it without breaking the bank. And it will also not force me to rush through certain other games I want to savor.

However, if too many games do this, I'll be in the same boat in February as I am now.

Really though. It would be interesting to hear the reason behind this. If its not additional censorship (which I hope is the case), then what will happen once the NA release is out? Will the European one get a patch..?

... or is it really a publisher issue?

Hm.

One wonders.

The game just needs polishing, which is why they have to wait until January for the worlds polish manufacturers to make enough polish to turn this turd into a diamond encrusted and extremely shiny turd. I don't know what is most ridiculous, the game is still actually going to come out or that they think it is a AAA title.

That's downright strange they would delay the NA version and release the not as polished version in Europe. And then to state that they want it more polished for a NA release? Nutjobs I say! Forsooth....the first game was a steaming pile of monkey shit!

That being said part II looks like it was going to be awesome and now I must wait for a far superior version. I trust Game Informer for the most part and they said the early build they played was absolutely amazing.
Yeah a lot of ppl have said that TW2 is amazing.

Eh, good news for me... will let me get Fable, Fallout and Assassin's Creed Brotherhood out of the way before it comes along to take up all my time.

Who cares? Two Worlds was painfully bad.
Honestly, this is what I'm thinking.
The first one was utterly dreadful. I only rented it and I feel I wasted my money.
The second one really doesn't look that much better.
I heard this, and I thought "Well, all 2 people looking forward to number 2 must be really sad."

I'll honestly be surprised if it gets released at all, since the company is drowning in crippling debt.
