Half-Life 2: Episode Two delayed until summer 2007

Valve’s Doug Lombardi said last week that Half-Life 2: Episode Two’s release has slipped from Q1 2007 back to summer 2007. Lombardi said that they are “now targeting summer 2007″ for a release. This obviously affects Team Fortress 2 and Portal, which are included in the Episode Two package.

The title was originally expected to be released at the end of 2006, with Valve confirming back in August 2006 it had changed its mind and was instead expecting for a February 2007 release. The reason for the further delay to summer 2007 hasn’t been given, but it can only be a good thing they are polishing up the games further.
