At E3 this year the Sony press conference had a bit of very good news for the company. The PS3 would play exclusive host to Rockstar’s upcoming game AGENT. Those in attendance saw the word agent pop up on the screen and heard a few words about it being exclusive. That was pretty much it. Eventually we learned it was an action game (way to narrow it down) and that it took place in the realm of international spying during the the 1970s. Also, Rockstar says it’ll probably resemble the second coming of Christ when it comes out.
But when shall the savior be reborn? Considering the fact that absolutely nothing except for a logo has been shown of the game and that Rockstar likes to nail its games as close to perfection as they can it would be a safe assumption that that date might be some time in 2011. However, according to a community question and answer session on GTA IV at Rockstar’s website AGENT is on track to be a 2010 release.
After being begged that the DLC hit the PS3 Rockstar responded with, “We appreciate the enthusiasm of PlayStation 3 owners and believe us, we understand where you’re coming from. That’s why we are working hard on a lineup of PlayStation 3 releases for 2010 that we know you will be very excited to play – including Red Dead Redemption, Max Payne 3, and the PlayStation 3 exclusive AGENT, which is a brand-new title from Rockstar North, the creators of the Grand Theft Auto series. Plus there’s more yet to be announced… Thanks again for your patience and please stay with us!”
Probably not the most shocking news, but still good news none the less. Of course the next post on the game will be a rumortoid about its delay until 2012, but let’s be happy for now.
