According to Microsoft, both Kinect Star Wars and the special Xbox 360 bundle featuring the Kinect lightsaber game have been delayed, with the game now moving into a 2012 release period.
”Microsoft and LucasArts have elected to move the launch of Kinect Star Wars beyond holiday 2011 to ensure the full potential of this title is realized,” a spokesperson told Official Xbox Magazine UK. ”This move applies to both the Kinect Star Wars stand-alone game and the Kinect Star Wars Limited Edition Console. We will communicate additional timing information at a later date.”
The delay is probably due to the unfinished state of the game and the fact that Kinect’s software is constantly being optimized.
