ArcaniA: Gothic 4's publisher DreamCatcher Interactive has announced that the fantasy RPG sequel's North American release on PC and Xbox 360 will not be tomorrow, as was planned, but has been pushed back into next week.

The worldwide launch is still on course for this week but North America will, for reasons unknown, have to wait until October 19. Still, you can always replay the demo.

Gothic 4 is developer Spellbound Entertainment's first entry in the opinion-dividing RPG series after taking over from creator Piranha Bytes, which has since made Risen.

A PlayStation 3 edition of ArcaniA: Gothic 4 is also in the works, though it was delayed a while back until the first half of 2011 to ensure it's up to scratch with the other platforms.

This reminds me, what ever happened to Project Offset? Last I heard it was bought by Intel.

Ok, a quick search turned this up: http://news.bigdownload.com/2010/07/01/project-offset-officially-shut-down-at-intel-founders-launches/

Intel bought them for the Larabee team, but then Larabee was canceled. So Intel pretty much ruined everything. Now the Offset founder and some of the team are together and working on [something].

If I wasn't hooked to Nehrim, I'd probably pick this one up at release. Demo was pretty fun.

Dreamcatcher is stupid. They delay this so it releases the same day as Fallout. That's going to go over well for them.
