After the eager anticipation of the closed beta test – looks like fans will have to wait a little longer to get their hands on some Diablo-esque gaming. Instead, the game is now scheduled to find its way to stores in “early 2012,” according to Blizzard.

Activision Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaime explained that the studio was “hopeful” that the game would ship in 2011, but ultimately that launch window became impossible to meet. “This week we pulled together people from all of the teams involved with the game to decide whether we felt it would be ready before the end of December, and we grudgingly came to the conclusion that it would not,” he explained.

According to Morhaime, the extra time will afford Blizzard the opportunity to add “further polish to a few different elements of the game” and open the beta to more users than was originally planned. Gamers interested in opting in to the beta for Diablo III can visit Battle.net.

Diablo III is the first title in the series since 2001′s Diablo II: Lord of Destruction expansion and will add a variety of new features, character classes, and a new auction house system designed as “a new way for the company to pull revenues from the game.”

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment today announced that the PC edition of Arkham City will not arrive alongside the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions on October 18. Instead, the publisher has pushed the PC debut back to a November release window. As for the console versions, WBIE did confirm that they have gone gold in advance of their global launches.

This isn’t the first Arkham City slight for the PC crowd. In July, WBIE announced a $100 Collector’s Edition package of the game that would come with a Batman statue, an art book, a soundtrack, an exclusive downloadable skin, and more. However, only the console versions of the game are receiving Collector’s Edition counterparts.

Like its predecessor, Arkham City drops Batman in the confines of an unconventional prison. But where Arkham Asylum stuck players in the halls and courtyards of a mental hospital overrun with the Joker’s goons and allies, Arkham City deposits them in a sprawling neighborhood of Gotham City that has been walled off to contain the criminal element.

Under the watchful eye of “warden” Dr. Hugo Strange, who knows Batman’s secret identity, inmates of Arkham City are free to do anything they want short of attempting escape. In addition to Strange, the game will feature Batman villains like Two-Face and the Joker.
