Gamecock’s Velvet Assassin has moved into the fourth quarter of next year, Eurogamer reports, back from a planned October release.

The move will bring the spy-based, WWII action title in line with its US launch, the publisher said today.

There’s more through there.

Gamecock’s Sabotage has received a name-change, and is now called Velvet Assassin.

“Rather than a trite, overused, and generic working title like ‘Sabotage,’ ‘Velvet Assassin’ captures the heart of what we’re trying to accomplish,” said Sascha Jungnickel, creative director at developer Replay Studios. “From the start we’ve wanted a game with a strong female lead that stays true to the history of Violette Szabo while pulling players into a world of dark intrigue.”

The game’s inspired by the real story of British agent Violette Szabo, so it’s all behind enemy lines without support-type stuff. Press release after the link. It’s out this year for PC and “next-generation consoles”.
