Far Cry 2 confirmed Oct. 21; Oct. 24 for Europe [update]

by Alexander Sliwinski { Sep 5th 2008 at 1:20PM }

Ubisoft sent out a press release this morning confirming that Far Cry 2 will hit European retail shelves on October 24th. The company also announced a collector's edition, which comes in a wooden box. The fine wooden case, sure to be made from only the finest trees (not really), will deliver the game, t-shirt, art book, collector's map and "making-of" DVD.

We're still waiting to hear back officially from Ubisoft if North America should plan on getting the game on October 21st, which is what many retailers are currently showing as the release date. Update: GameSpot confirms the date is the 21st.

I think in that one week alone we've now got Far Cry, Fallout 3, and Littlebigplanet. And then there's a whole nother slew the NEXT week.

This looks like an awesome game, i'm looking forward to see how well it turns out. Anyone know whether or not the PS3 version will include keyboard and mouse for single player at least? It'd be nice to at least have that option.

This will be the game of the year. So excited.

Shit, looks like I'm going to have to delay buying this game until later on (December/January?)

October- Motorstorm 2, Fifa 09, Rock Band 2, LittleBigPlanet, Fallout 3

Don't have time for even those games. Probably won't even open FIFA or Rock Band and barely scratch Fallout, not to mention LittleBigPlanet. Mah midterms are in the end of October too.
