Remember that pesky one-week delay for Insomniac's Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction we informed you about earlier this month? Forget about it.

After several retailers began switching their dates from the expected date of October 30 to a week earlier on the 23rd, Gaming-Age got curious and contacted SCEA.

These dates are apparently no farce, as an SCEA representative confirmed that the title will indeed be shipping early to several retailers. It's also confirmed that the advertising campaign will kick off to coincide with the title's launch on October 23rd.

So in conclusion, make sure to call your local retailer before heading out at the crack of dawn to buy this game (which we expect you all to do).

Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction will be seeing the light of day on October 23.

Update: This is now confirmed on the PlayStation.Blog

    Wait, what about the whole thing where retailers got the game early? Does that mean they won't be selling them early anymore?

    well i'm getting kinda excited about this title, i pre-ordered EoJ and R&C FToD, and they being coming out at the same time is gonna pinch my wallet for 130 bucks + tax

    You'll have a week between EoJ and R&C to try and save a little extra cash. As for selling them early I suppose the retailers that had gotten them sooner than expected probably already sold out of their stock or atleast were told to wait until this tuesday (the 23rd) to put them back out.

    What was the point of the one week delay again?

    Good new, good news. This with the 80Gb price drop in NA and 40Gb model introduced everywhere, even now sales are massive. This Ratchet and Clank along with Sony's advertising camaign is going to be ridiculously good for the PS3.

    It wasn't exactly bumped back, its just that some retailers got it early.

    Alpha2, you took the words from my mouth.

    And anyway, why hasn't the release date changed on PSU as well?

    SWEET!  This is the game that i am looking forward to most this year.  The past R&C have been phenominal and i loved the demo.  Must buy for me the moment it get's put on the store shelf.

    hey, anybody here listen to the full moon show? if you're a fan of insomniac (like me) you really should. you can't get an hour and a half of insider info, stupid jokes, and a disgruntled british opinion just anywhere anymore. plus you get an interview with an important figure in the industry in each episode!
