The sand-covered war zone of Spec Ops: The Line is being pushed deeper into Take-Two Interactive's release calendar. According to the publisher's fiscal results, the third-person shooter is now scheduled to arrive on the PC, Xbox 360, and PS3 sometime within the "first half fiscal 2013."

Originally, Spec Ops: The Line was slated to launch in 2011 before it was pushed to the end of the 2012 fiscal year (ending March 31, 2012). The financial report update now means that the Yager-developed, Dubai-based title will launch between April 2012 and September 2012.

Spec Ops: The Line was first revealed in December 2009.

      The beta was just alright. Another third person cover shooter. The maps and dynamics of the sand were pretty cool, but nothing really to drool over.

        if there was a beta, why is the release so long out? i understand a need for polishing, but 2013? they might as well be partially rebuilding

      Would have gotten slaughtered this fall against BF3 and MW3. Still, that's a hell of a delay. I had never heard of the Spec Ops games until this title was announced.

      The beta was awful. If they hope to make any money, they have a long way to go.

      The beta was boring as fuck. Why even continue working on this?
