Red Orchestra 2 delayed

By Wesley Yin-Poole Published 8 August, 2011

PC exclusive now out in September.

UPDATE: European distributor Lace Mamba has told Eurogamer a boxed version of Red Orchestra 2 will hit UK shops on Friday 16th September.

ORIGINAL STORY: PC exclusive Red Orchestra 2 has been delayed, Tripwire Interactive has announced.

Its 30th August launch has been pushed back two weeks to 13th September.

"While we understand the fans are clamouring to get their hands on the game, we felt we needed the extra two weeks to get it right and add the extra polish the game (and the players) deserve," Tripwire said in a statement.

PC tactical FPS sequel Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad costs US gamers $39.99 via Steam and other digital download stores. Prices for other territories will be "set to appropriate pricing for those territories". Nice.

The follow-up to acclaimed 2006 effort Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45 adds a cover system, collision detection and a new stat tracking system.
