The lights are on
Update: This morning we got word from Sega Europe on the European release date for Vanquish, which is set for October 22. Now Sega of America has come back with a North American release date that is a few days earlier than other regions. The sci-fi shooter will be available on October 19 in North America.
Also, just like the pre-order bonuses in Europe, you'll get the three-weapon pack (Boost Machine Gun, Anti-Armor Pistol, and Laser Cannon) if you order your copy in advance from GameStop. The weapon pack will be available for download day of release.
Original Story: Sega Europe has announced that Shinji Mikami's sci-fi shooter Vanquish will be heading to European 360's and PS3's on October 22 with special bonuses for those who pre-order. Still no word on the North American release date.
Fans who pre-order Vanquish in Europe will receive the Tri-Weapon pack that will include the Boost Machine Gun, Anti-Armor Pistol, and Laser Cannon. Also no word on any North American pre-order bonuses, but we suspect there will be some sort of similar freebies.
According to VG247, Vanquish will release in Japan on October 21, so it'd be safe to guess that a North American release date won't be too far off (hopefully). As of now it's pegged for a "winter" release.
OMFG THE EUROPEAN RELEASE DATE IS ON MY F**** BIRTHDAY. GOOD THING I LIVE IN AMERICA AND IM NOT GETTING THE GAME
wow why is it so hard to release it in America on the same day
Hmm, I had yet to even consider this title as on the horizon... I thought it was quite a ways off still.
We better not have to wait. Waiting for JPN is one thing but Europe gets it and we don't. Hell nah!
Lets see some trailers October isent that far off, there should have been more info out by now..
Trailers? Just click the link below. They got entire E3 demos, too.

Sega's certainly not hiding this game. It looks pretty dang cool, great action. Those who were impressed by Bayonetta but embarrassed to buy it now have a game they can proudly play in front of other people.
This game looks really cool. Won't be buying it, though, because I typically don't buy linear games any more. I will definitely rent it though.
If the weapons can be unlocked without the code by playing the game, then there is no incentive for me to pre-order.
Sweet!
far too many games coming out this year. thankfully i will finally be working by then so i can buy them all. unfortunately, my 2010 gaming backlog will stretch into next year and beyond. but thank god for all these great games!
Not excited, not interested, not getting it
The Boost Machine Gun? I guess all the cell phone companies would probably be making guns that far into the future...
come on north America. usa usa we need items.
I will not pre-order this. I really wanna play it, don't get me wrong, but I wanna make sure Platinum's work on the PS3 this time isn't so *** shoddy.
Still, game looks rad.
yay. gonna wait on a review GI
I shall wait for the Review, first!
shinji mikami making this? I'M IN.
@vinsanity don't worry about it the lead development platform is ps3 so no worries. they said they had to do this to avoid a bad port ;)
