KonamiannouncedthatOtomedius Excellentwon’t make its Fall 2010 release, but is now scheduled for a Spring 2011 release in Japan. The Xbox 360 shoot ’em up was originally set for a 2010 release in North America.
Since the reason for the Japanese delay was a “delay in production”, there’s not a chance in hell that this game will make it to North America before Spring 2011. All we can hope for is that it will get a simultaneous release. Although some sites report thatOtomedius Excellentis getting an XBLA release, probably due to a previouspress release, Gamespot has updated one of itspostson the game stating it is not coming to XBLA.
Otomedius Excellentis a full sequel toOtomedius G (Gorgeous)and if you ever playedGradius, you’ll know what to expect.
