MAG clips onto solid UK date

Sony has confirmed what retailers suspected: that MAG will be released in the UK on 29th January.

UK community leader "MusterBuster" posted the news on the MAG forum (via VG247) today.

Some central Europeans will be playing the game from 27th January, the post adds, while Australians and New Zealanders will play from 28th January.

Nine days earlier than release, Eurogamer readers will help this website fight another website in a massive MAG tournament. Help us fight, enlist today.

MAG, for those that don't know, is a 256-player online multiplayer shooter for PS3. See what we thought of the 256-player in our hands-on report from the open beta.
