With Modern Warfare 2 poised to become one of this year’s largest blockbusters according to Activision PR, the company is ensuring that no overlap occurs within its vast library of upcoming releases. That means time-bending, genre crossing title Singularity is being moved from its scheduled fall 2009 release date to early 2010.

The level of excitement for Infinity Ward’s Modern Warfare 2 coming out of E3 well exceeded our expectations and therefore we have decided to move Raven’s upcoming sci-fi first person action title, Singularity, from 2009 to Q1 2010.

We believe that the March quarter will provide a better opportunity to establish the new cutting-edge action IP as a “must-have” title and clears the way for Modern Warfare 2 to dominate this holiday season.

Probably a smart move considering both are first-person shooters, coupled with the obvious fact that Singularity is a relatively unheard of property. We’re sure the extra development time won’t hurt either.
