Cryptic announced today that Champions Online will not be releasing July 1st as originally intended. A new release date of September 1st 2009 has been set but what prompted the set back? Producer Bill Roper made this statement:
It is critically important for an MMO to be as good as it possibly can be at launch. Through our constant dialogue with our vocal and supportive community of beta testers, we quickly realized that in order to implement certain features that we all considered important the development of Champions Online would require more time. So that's what we're going to give it. Cryptic has a proven track record of releasing solid games and we want to maintain that with Champions Online.
This is likely a big disappointment for fans but an expected move for most games nearing a initial launch date. Get in on the discussion by clicking the "Comments" link below!
