Atari is refuting reports that Alone in the Dark has been delayed til September. Eurogamer reports that Atari says that the news item by “Games for Windows magazine was spouting a rumour, so presumably everything is on track for PC and 360 versions to appear in March.”
Atari recently launched the official site for the game, which has some viral marketing based around Central Park and the scary things that lurk within it.
Interestingly it appears to be based around real-life occurrences like the you-must-know-about-it insect invasion of 1888, where nine different families of spider were taken from a single tree and a meaty five pounds of caterpillars taken from another.
PlayStation 2 and Wii versions are noted on the site, and there is no PlayStation 3 release date yet.
