Sometimes games have to be pushed back to ensure that they are ready when released to the gaming public.

Today a new release date was announced for real-time strategy war game East India Company. Originally scheduled for release in Q4 2008, leading software publisher Lighthouse Interactive and developer Nitro Games decided to extend the release date to Q1 2009 in the best interest of fans and the game. This dynamic real-time strategy war game for Windows PC is based on the exploits and adventures of the infamous 18th century East India Companies. Playing as one of eight nations spanning Europe to the Far East, players are challenged to build the World's most powerful trading empire as they engage in fierce open sea battles in both single player and multiplayer modes.

East India Company promises to take Real-time Strategy War games to new levels, said Raymond Snippe, Senior Development Manager of Lighthouse Interactive. Allowing more development time further ensures that Nitro Games will deliver the best gaming experience possible. We want to wow strategy fans with EIC's technically advanced proprietary game engine and incredible cinematic game environments. We are confident that gamers will agree it's worth the wait.
