Evidently, Suikoden III is taking a little longer to complete than initially expected by Konami, because the company has delayed the title. Previously slated for Japanese release in December of this year, the game has now been pushed back to March 2002. The company did not offer an explanation for the setback.

What impact this will have on the recently announced North American port is uncertain at this point. Konami did not make any mention of that release, which is scheduled somewhat nebulously for 2002.
