Halo: Reach Coming In September?

"UK retail sources" have claimed a 14 September worldwide release for Halo: Reach.

Speaking to CVG, one "senior trade source" explained that "It gives Halo enough time to maximise sales before CoD arrives."

"Xbox 360 is pretty synonymous with Call of Duty, so it makes commercial sense for Microsoft and Activision to agree both games won't come out to close to one another," the source continued.

Both Halo 3 and Halo: ODST launched in September, albeit closer towards the end of the month, so it's certainly possible. We've hit up Microsoft to see what they have to say about it.

The last we saw of Halo: Reach was this rather stunning multiplayer beta footage, which contains jetpacks. Jetpacks! Trust us: you want to see it.

The beta itself will launch on 3 May.
