Masthead Studios has announced that Earthrise will not be making its Q2 2010 release date, and that the highly anticipated Earthrise combat video would be delayed as well. No date was provided for the release of either the game or the new video, however we can say for sure that the video will not be arriving before April 16. The announcement was made through an elaborate stunt on the official Earthrise forums featuring the demolition of the Earthrise development team by a vicious Jaberwokie.

Why the Jaberwokie? The Jaberwokie originates from an April Fool's Day stunt that Earthrise guild Gallowglass pulled in an attempt to gain new information about the game. As it would turn out, the mechanized assassin "Jaberwokie" has decimated the Masthead team, and has thus delayed the game. These things happen.
