Following on from last week’s news that The Godfather II had been delayed until the first quarter of fiscal 2010, the EA Store is now listing the title for release on April 10th.

The Godfather II was originally due to be released on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC on February 27th, but was pushed back to build up more excitement for the title. The Sims 3 was also delayed for similar reasons.

Though a new date has yet to be confirmed by EA, information revealed at the EA Store has proven to be reliable in the past, with details previously posted there regards the PS3 port of Red Alert 3 proving to be correct.

The direct download pre-order campaign also offers a free character unlock to use in the game as well as a free download of the original Godfather game.

We’ve contacted EA for comment.
