Earlier we carried word that oft-delayed title Rise of the Argonauts had been delayed to 2009. Now it appears that the delay only applies to unfortunate European gamers as publisher Codemasters has now announced that Liquid Entertainment’s action-RPG will hit North America on December 16.

Gamers in the UK won’t be able to get their hands on the copy before February 6, 2009, though. Oddly, Australia will get it on December 12, with Europe (excluding UK) will get it on December 16.

The mythology-powered game is due out on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.
