Platinum Games has revealed that Anarchy Reigns’ release date for Europe and the US has been changed to “TBC”, while work on the game is “finished, localized, and ready to go”.
Gary Green said: If you were one of those lucky gamers who pre-ordered Anarchy Reigns online back in 2012, then you were probably very pleased to see your copy arrive up to two weeks early, allowing you smile smugly at those preferring to pick up the game in-store on launch day, not that many shops were even bothering to stock it. If the early release wasn’t enough to inspire you to pick up Anarchy Reigns, then how about the Limited Edition retailing at under 20GBP? Tempted yet?
It all sounds too good to be true. You might be wondering how the game could ship so early before release. Well, that’s largely down to the fact that Anarchy Reigns was ready months earlier. The Japanese version, titled ‘Max Anarchy’, featured a fully English language option and was released back in autumn 2012. Surely though that’s not a big enough reason to half the price of a new-release game, right? There must be more darkening Anarchy Reigns’ potential to justify such an act.
A recent wave of modern brawlers have exploded onto the scene, and it feels like they owe Anarchy Reigns some gratitude.
Jerry from BagoGames says, "With Astral Chain coming out right around the corner for the Nintendo Switch, I couldn’t help but think about all the amazing games PlatinumGames has pumped out over the years. Some revered greatly, others panned by critics, but to me insane infatuation. These are my five favorite games from my favorite developer"
It's most likely delayed to revamp the networking aspect of the game for non optic fiber countries.
There were some online multiplay hiccups even when demoed within Japan.
Recent tweet from the developer saying networking was a pain in the ass to work on for non Japanese regions because of how far apart everybody was to each other.
The Japanese Demo drops next week and supposed to have multiplayer, so it'd be nice to check out how good or bad the net code really is.
Probably need more time due to Metal Gear Rising.
JESUS!The game its already finished, localized, and ready to go theres no fuc%ing reason to delay it!Its the IP own by SEGA?It seems the jap. version will have english,if so then i alrEady know what to do.Sega just stop with the bs sonic games and get this new Ip`s out.
