Midway: BlackSite: Area 51 to be released in November

Midway executives have revealed during the company’s Q2 earnings call that the upcoming next gen shooter BlackSite: Area 51 (PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360) has been moved to a November 5 North American release date. European gamers will be able to get the game earlier on October 26.

BlackSite: Area 51 has previously been given a Summer 2007 release date. Various retail outlets have also pegged the game’s release date for September 3 and 14 for the U.S. and Europe, respectively. This announcement places Stranglehold (PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360) as Midway’s only Q3 release for next gen video game consoles.

A demo for the game has been confirmed by the executives, however. This reaffirms producer Harvey Smith‘s statements that a BlackSite: Area 51 demo will be released in the next few months. The demo will reportedly showcase a more cinematic story scene.
