Sega has announced that Vanquish, the upcoming epic sci-fi third-person action shooter from Platinum Games, is set to release in North America on October 19 for the PS3 and Xbox 360.

Along with the announcement, Sega also unveiled a GameStop-exclusive pre-order three-weapon pack bonus:

“The Tri-Weapon pack contains a small arsenal of experimental technology, made up of the Boost Machine Gun, Anti-Armor Pistol and Laser Cannon. This triple threat of futuristic weaponry gives players an edge in surviving the frenetic and massive battles onboard the vast space station setting of VANQUISH. The Boost Machine Gun is an early experimental weapon with impressive overall fire power and the speed to dispense rounds similar to that of a heavy machine gun. The Anti-Armor Pistol fires a special penetrative shell and was manufactured to tackle hostile forces with much stronger armor. Finally, the Laser Cannon is a miniaturized space warship laser and is more powerful than any other weapon available for infantry.”

Now earlier today, Sega has also announced that the game will be out in Europe on October 22.
