Anarchy Reigns delayed into 2012 by SEGA, for Japan only?

Publisher SEGA has pushed the Japanese release date of Platinum Games’ Anarchy Reigns into next year, as it now misses its scheduled Fall 2011 window.

Known as ‘Max Anarchy’ in Japan it is now due January 2012. It’s unclear if this delay will affect international dates or not as SEGA is yet to comment.

The action is completely over-the-top, befitting the developer of Bayonetta and Vanquish, and also features MadWorld’s Jack as one of the characters. A worldwide release was set for this Fall but with the delay in Japan will we be waiting until January too?

Anarchy Reigns releases on Xbox 360 and PS3 this Fall, presently.
