CVG is reporting that Doug Lombardi, Valve Software's Director of Marketing, informed the website that the release of Half-Life 2: Episdode Two and all of the add-on games has been pushed to the Summer of 2007. No reason for this delay was given.
"Valve's Doug Lombardi told CVG today that Half-Life 2: Episode Two's release has slipped from Q1 2007 back to summer 2007. Lombardi told us that the super developer is "now targeting summer 2007" for a release. This obviously affects Team Fortress 2 and Portal, which all form part of mouth-watering Episode Two package.
The title was originally expected to hit at the end of 2006, with Valve confirming back in August it had changed its mind and was instead gunning for Q1 2007, maybe February."
