As part of its recent financial results report today, Take-Two has announced that Red Dead Redemption has been delayed. Previously scheduled to arrive on April 27, the Rockstar San Diego-developed title is now slated to release in North America on May 18 and internationally on May 21. The announcement doesn't specify a reason for the move, though it's worth pointing out that the new date moves Red Dead Redemption out of the publisher's fiscal Q2 (February-April) and into its third quarter (beginning May 1).

Take-Two also notes that financial guidance for its fiscal 2010 has been adjusted to take the move into account.
