Age of Conan Delayed, Release Date Set

Jan 26, 2007 6:57am CST tags: MMO, Age of Conan, Delay
It looks like Funcom's MMO Age of Conan will have to age a bit more in development before hitting retail shelves. Funcom just sent word that the game has been pushed out of its previously expected Q2 2007 release period, but the game now has a solid release date: October 30, 2007. On the delay, Funcom CEO Arne Aas said, "Age of Conan today looks and plays fantastically, as countless press previews and industry feedback attest to. Even so, we believe that by spending even more time and effort into polishing and enhancing the game we will ensure that the game reaches its full potential in terms of quality and subscriber base. We are confident that our fan base will appreciate this commitment to quality. The prolonged development time reflects our ambition to meet and exceed the expectations of our fans for this game."

Age of Conan is currently in closed beta, with an open beta forthcoming. Today's press release notes that those who are members of the Age of Conan online community, or become so soon, will have "a unique chance to influence and impact the Age of Conan game as it approaches its last stages of development."
