Atari has moved the release date for Ghostbusters on DS, PC, Wii and Xbox 360 from October 23 to November 6.

Currently available on PS2 and PS3, the PSP version is still on track for an October 30 release.

Great. Another delay. Sorry kiddos.

Thanks, Eurogamer.

After debuting little more than a month ago, Ghostbusters: The Videogame has already haunted one million North American homes.

“We are very pleased with the performance of Ghostbusters: The Videogame, and credit the game’s quality as well as the incredible support from both the established and new fan-base all helping to make this a retail success,” said Atari CEO Jim Wilson.

While the game hit every console under the sun in North America, only PS3 and PS2 versions heeded the call in Europe. We imagine Atari’s anticipating another sales boost when Ghostbusters launches on Xbox 360, Wii, et. all on October 23.

Thanks, Edge.

Atari open its traps yesterday and unleashed some brand new Ghostbusters screenshots for us to look at.

We reckon they look great, especially the lighting and particle effects.

See what you think after the break.

Game’s out in June.

First Sony Pictures accidentally gave the game away, then Terminal Reality boss Mark Randel told us it was always meant to be that way, and now Atari has rubber stamped the deal confirming that Ghostbusters: The Videogame will be released in the US on June 16 and worldwide three days later.

“Ghostbusters: The Video Game is set to release across North America on 16 June 2009 followed by worldwide release on 19 June,” says the release which you can read in its entirety after the break.

“The game’s launch on 16 June 2009 coincides with Sony Pictures Home Entertainment’s worldwide debut of the original motion picture on Blu-ray Disc.”

Speaking to videogaming247, Terminal Reality chief Mark Randel confirmed the news that Ghostbusters: The videogame will release in June and declared: “It will be a huge Ghostbusters week!”

“Yes, that is correct, we have always been planning day and date release with the Blu-ray discs,” said Mark.

“It will be a huge Ghostbusters week!”

As to whether we will see any kind of special edition Blu Ray movie/game box set, Randel said: “I cannot comment about the contents of a special version of the game other that it’s still in the planning stages…”

Ghostbusters was recently snapped up by Atari after being put out to tender by Activision last year.
