Alone in the Dark delay a "rumour" News

Alone in the Dark has not been delayed until September, according to Atari.

A spokesperson for the publisher claimed Games for Windows magazine was spouting a rumour, so presumably everything is on track for PC and 360 versions to appear in March.

Atari recently launched the official site for the game, which has some viral marketing based around Central Park and the scary things that lurk within it.

Interestingly it appears to be based around real-life occurrences like the you-must-know-about-it insect invasion of 1888, where nine different families of spider were taken from a single tree and a meaty five pounds of caterpillars taken from another.

Less interestingly Atari added PS2 and Wii versions of its survival-horror game to its schedule last November. As with the PS3 offering, no dates have been mentioned.

Alone in the Dark remains a key project for Atari in 2008, so pop over to our gamepages (below) to see how it is shaping up.

Atari don't do delays they just shove the beta code out of the door regardless.

This game has great potential, I remember the devs saying it was going to be in a sort of episodic format, not dissimilar to what Alan Wake has got going for it.

And the graphics engine looks quite nice, too.

I really, really want this to be good.

It's going to be rubbish though, isn't it?

Atari is in such a huge financial crisis, that they will publish this game in March, no matter what state it is in. Doesn't bode well.

I heart Call Of Cthulhu: Dark Corners Of The Ear!

As my X-Box 360 likes to call it...
