EyePet was originally set for the 2009 holiday season. Well a while ago it was rumored that the game will be delayed, and now these rumors have turned out to be true. EyePet has been delayed for a 2010 release. However, Europe is in luck. The game is still scheduled for an Oct. 23rd release date.

As we reported yesterday, review copies have already been sent out to select outlets, making this move even more surprising. Some have pointed out that a push to April would make sense if Sony wants to align the adorable title with the Sony Motion Controller, which has recently been confirmed to support the EyePet. Is this part of the reason? It's a possibility, but it's likely not the only cause. As said in the quote, it's not the easiest game for Sony to sell, so it might be worth waiting until a less populated time of year to market the little thing to consumers.
