Mastiff and Renegade Kid have announced that the highly anticipated first-person shooter Moon, which was previously scheduled to release for the Nintendo DS on November 18, 2008, has been delayed until January 13, 2009.

Developed by Renegade Kid, Moon is a rare beast - a sci-fi, action-adventure title for Nintendo DS.

Moon places gamers on the cold lunar surface in the year 2058. Researchers are shocked to find a sealed, alien hatch during construction of a new lunar base, but it's a shock that soon pales in comparison to what they find beyond the hatch.

"With each passing day I see Moon grow into a darker, more heart pounding beast," said Bill Swartz, Head Woof of Mastiff. "Gamers are in for an intense experience unlike anything they've ever experienced on the DS."
