Capcom announced that their sci-fi action shooter, Lost Planet 3, will miss its original June release date, and will now be landing in August instead.

At the end of a long press release detailing Capcom’s plans for the year, they snuck in that Lost Planet 3 will now be releasing August 27 in North America, and August 30 in Europe. Eurogamer is reporting the game’s delay should be put down to “business reasons.”

When Lost Planet 3’s new release date comes around, the game will be launching on the PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360.

Capcom confirms June 25 release date for Lost Planet 3

Posted on March 6, 2013 by John Scalzo

Capcom has announced that Lost Planet 3 will be released for the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 on June 25 (June 28 in Europe). The publisher has also released a new trailer for Lost Planet 3, highlighting the Snow Pirates that populate E.D.N. III:

The trailer continues the story of Jim Peyton’s time on E.D.N. III as a NEVEC employee seeking out further sources of the planet’s energy supply T-Eng. During one of these missions, Jim comes under attack from E.D.N. III’s indigenous Akrid, causing his Utility Rig to fall down an icy fissure, leaving him unconscious and injured. Jim wakes to find himself in what appears to be a secret base, hidden beneath the planet’s frozen surface. On discovering he was rescued by one of the base’s inhabitants, Mira, the daughter of Snow Pirate leader, So’ichi, Jim realizes that NEVEC are not the only human inhabitants of E.D.N. III.

And if you’ve got tickets to this year’s PAX East show (March 22-24), you could swing by the Capcom booth to give a demo of Lost Planet 3 a try.
