Though it was intended to be a Euro PS3 launch title, Sierra had delayed F.E.A.R. for the console to make it more optimized for the console. The company has announced that the game will hit stores on April 24 in North America.

A PS3 port of the critically praised horror-FPS, F.E.A.R. will feature multiplayer support for up to 16 players via the PlayStation Network; an Instant Action mode – a new arcade style mode where player progress can be tracked via leader boards; and an exclusive level and weapon for the console.

F.E.A.R. is also available on PC and Xbox 360.
