Crysis 2 delayed

Don't panic.

EA has delayed the release of Crysis 2.

The science fiction shooter will now be released between the beginning of January and the end of March 2011.

No explanation was given for the delay, which was quietly confirmed by a release schedule inside a press release reporting EA's first quarter 2011 financial results.

Crytek's Cevat Yerli had pinned Crysis 2 to a "Holiday 2010" release during EA's E3 2010 press conference.

The game will be playable in 3D across all three platforms - PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 - at launch.

Crysis 2 looks well good. Christian Donlan went hands-on for Eurogamer in June.
