Lost Planet 2 Gets a Slight Release Date Change
Written Friday, March 26, 2010 By Richard Walker

Lost Planet 2 must be shaping up much better than Capcom thought, because its brought the release date forward by a week, changing the launch from 18th May to 11th May.

More great Lost Planet 2 news, following earlier confirmation of a second multiplayer demo coming to XBL on April 21st.

Not too shabby. And if that wasn't enough to send you into a rabid Lost Planet 2 frenzy, we'll also be giving you the chance to get your hands on one of 16 early-access codes we've got to give away for the demo, so you can take part in a multiplayer shootout with Capcom and other players online.

Keep an eye out for the giveaway next week.

Meanwhile, check out two new screens taken from the 'Turbulent Jungle' versus map which will feature in the demo.

I want this ... but Alan Wake is Priority Numero Uno. And then Blur is Numero Dos. I'll wait to see how "gimped" they truly made this game.

Still waiting for Ryu and Ken to be announced as bonus characters. Why not, everyone else seems to be making an appearance.

everytime i see this, i think more and more of wanting to play it..espically since you can have 4 person co-op..that will be alot of fun right there i think, big ass monsters and nice graphics are an added bonus

I never liked the first tbh. Might look into this when it's cheap, but unless it gets universal praise and high 90s in scoring, it's not something I'd likely buy.

Looks pretty cool though, just not my thang!

This is great news May 18 was overcrowded with LP2, Red Dead Redemption, POP Forgotten Sands and acording to some sources Alan Wake.

The game was going to come out in February, they pushed it back for fear of bad sales against what else was releasing in that time frame. Now they see what else was coming out that week and move the date again, at least it was forward this time...

@6, i'm in a similar train of thought.

Seriously though, it smacks of desperation when they're having to include "Special Guest Characters" to increase sales (unless there's another reason for the adding of non-LP characters?)

Played the first and thought it was absolutely awful, doubt i'll be bothered with the sequel, unless I catch hold of a rave review . . .

@5 in your profile go to "edit your details", at the bottom of the page is a box that I think says "XBOX LIVE Gamertag".

i have been a HUGE fan of LP since the first game was released, and i just think this game is being over hyped, and because of that, the community of LP will be, well, kinda like that of CoD. previously, it was a nice, well mannered community, for the most part. there was still trash talk in games, but it was really all for fun. and your teammates helped the team, rather than themselves. but especially with the GoW characters being introduced, its gunna get pretty D-Baggy.

its a win lose situation; more people on LP means more fun (even though it was pretty fun in LP:C to face the same people over and over again) but it's gunna bring in the more rude people. =S

Wow! It's seems like an impossibility in this day and age that there could be a game which has its release date sooner, instead of later.
