Alpha Protocol has a release date

Sega has announced today that the highly-anticipated Action/RPG Alpha Protocol being developed by Obsidian will be available in North America for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC on October 6.

Alpha Protocol weaves a story not unlike Robert Ludlum’s popular Jason Bourne novels. The RPG’s plot follows Michael Thorton, a secret agent who has turned rogue after being disavowed by his government. However, given that the game accommodates a branching storyline a la BioWare’s sci-fi RPG Mass Effect, players can assume a variety of undercover personas, ranging from a suave James Bond-style spy to one like the maniacal Jack Bauer of 24 fame.
