After warning gamers that their upcoming action title, Saboteur, might not make it to retail shelves this year, Pandemic Studios has come through and officially announced that it will be released this year after all. Details after the jump.

EA and Pandemic's The Saboteur (PC, PS3, Xbox 360) was one of the games I was really looking forward to this year. It still is, really, only it's become one of my most wanted games for 2010, assuming that Pandemic finishes it by then. Anyway, check out a new Saboteur trailer after the jump.

Pandemic's The Saboteur has been known about since 2007 when it was first announced. As far as well can tell from screenshots and trailers, it's a gorgeous-looking game with some mighty interesting gameplay concepts, but don't count on seeing it in stores this year just yet.

If you were beginning to think that Pandemic Studios and EA's freedom-fighter action-adventure Saboteur has gone down the vaporware bin, then you're wrong. And aren't you glad? After a very long silence, EA has gone out with press release assets for the game today. Fact sheet and images after the jump.
