Over at reddit, a user has shared a statement from AntOnline, one of the retailers who also had the pre-order bundle with Destruction AllStars. They are allowing to either cancel pre-order or get a gift card that is equivalent to the price of the game ($70) so that it can be substituted with another launch game. As for the console itself, it will be delivered at launch without any delay.
Pete Smith, Director of Product Development shared the news of the delay on the official PlayStation Blog, also confirming that the game will now launch in February as part of the PlayStation Plus games lineup.
