Bad news for all of you would-be island infiltrators. Ubisoft’s highly anticipated Far Cry 3  has been delayed in both North America and Europe. Instead of shipping in first week of September the game will now launch on November 29 in Europe and December 4th in the United States & Canada.

This delay is not believed to be due to any last minute development hitches, as the press release states that Far Cry 3 will have a positive impact on the companies bottom line for 2012. Perhaps it has been delayed to maximize sales? Whatever the reason just be glad this one didn’t slip into 2013 like Bioshock Infinite and Tomb Raider did earlier this month.
