id Software have announced that Enemy Territory: Quake Wars has gone gold, and is ready for its release in Europe and Australia on September 28, 2007, with North America not too far behind on October 2.

id Software CEO Todd Hollenshead is stoked:

After months of testing, tweaking and balancing Enemy Territory: QUAKE Wars, I’m pleased to finally be able to say ‘It’s Done!’ […] We’ve had a ton of fun getting the game ready for the masses and I’m looking forward to seeing the massive battle for the top of the online leaderboards begin!

Splash Damage owner and creative director Paul Wedgwood is, funnily enough, also stoked:

The opportunity to develop Enemy Territory QUAKE Wars has been mind-blowingly cool! […] The passion and effort put in by our team at Splash Damage, combined with the amazing direction and mentoring we’ve received from id Software has lead to an award-winning game that we’re incredibly proud of. Our team can’t wait to join fans across the globe to fight in Earth’s battle for survival!

We just hope the world isn’t too caught up in Halo 3 to give Enemy Territory a chance, as our own Justin had a look at the recent Beta 2 and thinks it’s a worthy game - be sure to check out his impressions here.
