Due to some “minor content changes”, the release date of Episodes From Liberty City for PC and PS3 has been pushed back a full two weeks. Rockstar cites “a request by Sony Europe to make some minor content changes to the PAL PS3 version of the game,” as reason for the delay. A press release regarding the delay said in part:
“Despite our best efforts to work through this quickly, the two weeks were needed to complete submission…We understand and sympathize with the fans that will be upset by this delay. We want to assure our fans that the minor changes made to the game will not affect the gamers’ enjoyment of the games, these will not affect any gameplay elements and were not related to any local ratings requirements.”
A blog post on Rockstar Games stressed their wish to release the game more or less simultaneously, hence the delay in North America and other regions outside of Europe, where the changes need to be made. Episodes From Liberty City arrives in North America on April 13. Players in other regions can purchase or download the double expansion (containing DLC chapters The Ballad Of Gay Tony and The Lost And The Damned) starting April 16.
