Rock Band for Wii, PS2, and PS3 in Europe to arrive in August

shuandrew | April 14, 2008 | News | Playstation 2 Playstation 3

After confirming that Rock Band would arrive on the PS2, PS3 and Wii in the 'summer' after the Xbox 360's limited exclusivity had worn away, word has it that the exact date that the rhythm/music title will arrive in Europe is August 29.

If, announced last week, the extortionate price you’ll have to pay for Rock Band in Europe hasn’t put you off wanting to buy Electronic Arts’ rhythm/music title, then you’ll be wanting to know that reports suggest the Nintendo Wii build arrives in the continent on August 29, a full three months after the Microsoft Xbox 360 version.

Update: VideoGamer.com earlier contacted EA regarding the date following the presence of an August 29 release date on a Rock Band fact sheet.

EA's confirmation has now been retracted. The publisher telling VideoGamer.com that the European release date for Rock Band on PS3, Wii and PS2 "isn't confirmed, and is on the factsheet in error".

All EA is willing to confirm is a "later this summer" date, which is back where we started.
I wonder how such a precise release date got onto the fact sheet then if EA's now saying it's unconfirmed.
