After NeoGAF users were notified by Amazon UK that From Software’s Dark Souls 2 wouldn’t be out on April 25th, Bandai Namco rep recently told MCV that the game was delayed in the UK to May 2nd.
“This is only affecting the UK on the boxed release of the game. It will be delayed unfortunately and we apologize to UK customers.
“This is due to a manufacturing issue with packaging. To confirm, this will only affect the UK boxed launch.”
This only applies to the retail version though as the digital release in the UK will be releasing on April 25th for PC (both the retail and digital releases for North America are on schedule). The game is already available for the Xbox 360 and PS3, received rave reviews in the process and averaged some decent sales in the past month.
