Metroid: Other M confirmed for September

Metroid: Other M will be released in the UK this September.

The release window was confirmed by a trade ad from Nintendo in the latest issue of MCV, due out tomorrow.

This puts the game’s European debut within weeks of its US launch, confirmed as August 31st during Nintendo’s E3 press conference.

It also means UK gamers won’t have to wait long after the game reaches Japan on September 2nd.

Metroid: Other M is the newest take on the long-running sci-fi franchise. It is the first in the series to be developed by a third-party developer, Team Ninja.
