Tearaway delayed until November

Media Molecule has announced that PlayStation Vita exclusive Tearaway has been pushed back a month and will now launch 22 November.

The latest game from the makers of LittleBigPlanet needs a little bit more time to be finished off.

"We are now in the final stages of development, and have come to the realisation that we need a little bit more time than we anticipated to finish the game; to tie all of the mechanics, story and amazing visuals together into the adventure that we want you to play," creative lead Rex Crowle said.

"To give us that time, we've decided to move the release date by one month, from mid-October to November 22nd.

"We're really, really sorry for the minor delay, we promise you hand on heart that the wait will be worthwhile! Thanks for being patient, please don't be too cross with us, lots of love, Mm xxxx."

Tearaway is now in the unfortunate position of competing for attention with the next-generation game releases during the November period.
