Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad delayed to September 13

The lines of battle constantly shift, and Tripwire Interactive's wargame Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad maintains that trend. The publisher today announced the game will miss its August 30 release date and instead arrive on September 13 exclusively on the PC.

In a statement, the publisher said the additional two weeks of development time will allow the studio to "get it right and add the extra polish the game (and the players) deserve."

As its name implies, Heroes of Stalingrad takes place in Stalingrad, the site of one of the bloodiest battles of World War II. The game's single-player campaign has gamers completing alternating missions as Russians and Germans. The title also sports a multiplayer component, where players can duke it out in three distinct game modes: Territories, Firefight, and Countdown.
