In a move to extend development time to ensure quality, Wolfpack Studios has delayed its upcoming massively multiplayer online RPG, Shadowbane, until early 2003. The main focus of the extended production time will be placed on the game's beta, as the company continues to progress the game toward the polished product it hopes to achieve.

While no solid date has been officially confirmed, MMORPGamers can expect to see the game in the first quarter 2003, according to retailers. Find out more about Shadowbane from RPGamer's preview.
