Grandia delayed

[06.09.99] » Sony shuffles Game Arts's RPG back to a fall timeframe.

   Waiting for Grandia? Don't start counting the days just yet. Sony today confirmed with the GIA that its English translation of Game Arts's epic would not meet its original summer release date. The highly anticipated title will now ship sometime in the fall, tentatively October. The October estimate is backed up by retailer Babbages' own October listing for the game.

   Sony gave no reasons for the delay, but the crowded summer RPG field -- a field including another Sony RPG, Star Ocean 2 -- is likely at least partially to blame.
