Star Ocean: Second Evolution delayed until January 20, 2009

Square-Enix has announced that Star Ocen: Second Evolution for the PSP will be launching January 20, 2009, instead of the previous projected date of January 6, 2009.

Evolution takes time, people. I’m not sure on the specifics but I think it took us some 10,000 years or so to grow thumbs so pushing a game back two weeks isn’t that big a deal. Plus, it’s not like there is a shortage of RPG’s to play until then and that pile of games you promised yourself you are going to get to is still weeping for attention.

Joystiq makes note that Square-Enix didn’t mention the cause of the delay but my guess is they have some games to be catching up on as well, *cough* Final Fantasy XIII *cough*.

For those who may be just now getting a PSP for Christmas, Star Ocean: Second Evolution is yet another Square-Enix remake. The original game was titled Star Ocean: The Second Story for Playstation One. The upcoming PSP version will feature additional playable characters, new artwork and new cutscenes.
