Homeworld 2 Goes Gold is the press release from Vivendi Universal Games announcing that Homeworld 2 is gold, and that the space-based RTS sequel is expected to ship to stores in North America on September 16. Here's the deal:

Homeworld 2, the sequel to one of 1999's highly acclaimed RTS games, returns players to the helm of the most powerful space armada in the universe as they battle to keep their home. The highly-anticipated follow up title includes multiplayer competition for up to five other players, in addition to an engrossing single player saga, and features startling space effects like dust gas clouds, wispy nebulae, and ghostly derelict hulks of space ships rendered with spectacular Hollywood-style special effects.

"Homeworld 2 takes our commitment to quality to the next level, by including a number of visual improvements, as well as refinements to the gameplay and user-interface," said Dan Irish, Executive Producer of Homeworld 2. "We're excited to deliver the next chapter in the Homeworld saga, and are looking forward to seeing the fans' reactions to our improvements of the series."

To guarantee a copy of Homeworld 2 on release day, gamers can reserve a copy through their local retail store or online site. Customers who reserve a copy at Best Buy, GameStop, Amazon.com, Musicland and CompUSA will receive a bonus Homeworld 2 CD with never before seen concept art, trailer, poster, and much more, while supplies last.

I got to beta test the original homeworld, was very cool, and some of the ships really added to tactics. I think I'll pickup HW2
