Jurassic Park: The Game Delayed Until Fall

Jurassic Park: The Game, Telltale's upcoming episodic adventure game set after the first Jurassic Park film, has been delayed until the fall in order to refine the game mechanics and to make a better game experience, as well as to have the computer and console versions release at the same time (PC and Mac were originally scheduled in April, the console versions were always scheduled for fall).

The game is no longer available for preorder on Telltale's website, and everyone who already did preorder will get a refund plus a non-expirable coupon code for one Telltale game.
