Halo: Reach will be hitting your Xbox 360 in September.

According to Associated Press the game will release worldwide on 14 September, barring Japan, which will get the surefire hit a day later.

Bungie also noted that the Reach beta has "exceeded" their expections, with 2.7 million players giving it a shot.

"Our only real perspective going into this was the Halo 3 beta test, which had about 800,000 people," said Bungie's Brian Jarrard. "We knew there were a couple million copies of ODST out there, but we really didn't have any specific information that let us know what the population might be like."

The beta ended last Thursday, following an extension which let players carry on shooting each other for an extra day.
