The French PR we posted recently from Focus was obviously just a bit fast out of the gate, with JoWood announcing the PS3 version of Arcania for all territories will be delayed until 2011, though other platforms are locked in for October:
Vienna, Austria, August 5th 2010; JoWooD Entertainment and the BVT Group announce that the release of the ArcaniA: Gothic 4 Playstation 3 version is set for the first half-year of 2011. The successor of the internationally successful Gothic series will be released on current-gen consoles for the first time, additional to PC systems. Xbox 360 and PC versions will hit the stores on Oct. 12th 2010.

The focus during development of ArcaniA: Gothic 4 laid on a well-founded quality assurance. Playstation 3 gamers will experience the same, high quality product as Xbox 360 and PC customers. This causes the adjustment of the release date and sets the course for an outstanding gameplay experience on all platforms.
More information.

I heard that the PS3 version will be a port, handled by a different development house, so that makes sense.

There will also be an Atari 8bit version set for 2011. It will feature four channel audio, more immersive loading screens, two sided floppies, a cloth map, but no ankh.

It isn't often that a major console gets left behind for a cross-platform game. I hope their port is alright though ;-)
