Video Game News: Champions Online Delayed

Posted by on May 18, 2009 in News

Ohhh some Monday bad news, it looks like the Champions Online launch date has been moved from July 14th to September 1st of this year.

Why you ask, Cryptic had this to say

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.

Really, if Champions Online is set to be the premier superhero massively multiplayer online role playing game I’m ok with waiting for it to be bug free.
