America's Army won't hit UK

Ubisoft has quietly removed the PlayStation 2 version of America's Army from its UK release schedule, saying simply that it's been "cancelled".

The game, dubbed Rise of a Soldier, had been in development at Secret Level, and had last appeared on Ubisoft's schedule as due out in September. PS2 and Xbox versions were released in the USA in June.

There's currently no word on why the UK version was cancelled, although the game had picked up middling reviews in the US, and developer Secret Level has since been bought out by SEGA and is working on a 2007-targeted Golden Axe remake.
