EA Sports announced today that NBA Elite 11, the new basketball title that continues the tradition of NBA Live, most will not come out later this year as previously planned, but was postponed to 2011 to allow developers to complete the best job modernization of the series. The announcement is now its only the U.S., but it seems obvious that the delay will impact even on European soil.

That's not all. As you may know, the game was to include a download code for NBA Jam: because of this delay, now the arcade basketball title will be released separately, probably as a Live Arcade game in charge. We will update you when we have more news about it.
