Dark Messiah of Might and Magic: Elements delayed until Q1 2008

Dark Messiah of Might and Magic: Elements delayed until Q1 2008 - Image 1After announcing that Dark Messiah of Might and Magic: Elements will finally be available to Xbox 360 players in December, Ubisoft somewhat retracted the statement and pushed the title’s release some time in the fourth quarter of its financial year – meaning the game will be released between January and March 2008.

It should be remembered that the game was first scheduled to be released this month but Ubisoft declared that it is pushing back Dark Messiah to December to coincide with the release date of the other titles for other platforms. Now we have Ubisoft further delaying Dark Messiah of Might and Magic: Elements’ release. Will this play to their advantage (delaying game releases to increase hype is a common strategy in the gaming industry), or will this cause a waning of interest for their video game?

This video game, made for the PC platform, is actually a port of the original for the Xbox 360. However, several new features have been added to make it more appealing to console players, including controls revision and Xbox Live integration.
