PixelatedMonster.com has received information from a credible source that Anarchy Reigns may not see a release in Western Markets.
This information comes after Platinum Games let fans know that SEGA had delayed the game in North America and Europe only giving "TBC" as the release on SEGAs official website.
SEGA has announced Fearless: Year of Shadow, a campaign that celebrates Sonic the Hedgehog and his brooding acquaintance, Shadow.
GamesIndustry.biz writes: "Relic is best known for the Company of Heroes and Dawn of War games, and recently developed the new Age of Empires for Microsoft. Relic will transition to an independent studio and will no-longer be part of the Sega group of studios.
The majority of the 240 job cuts are across Creative Assembly and Sega Europe, while there will be a ‘small number’ cut from Sega HARDLight. There was no mention of other Sega UK studios, including Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive."
Sega had such a turbulent existence from the mid-90s to when they dropped out of console manufacturing entirely in 2001, it’s understandable if you’ve never heard of the Genesis Nomad.
"There will still be ways for you to get it if you know where to go"
Seems more like they are saying even if Sega doesn't localize it, importing the game is still an option.
please don't joke like that
Yakuza, Rhythm Thief AND Anarchy Reigns?
Please let this be false, those are like the best games SEGA could publish this year.
I really wish Platinum would get with a better publisher. Its not that SEGA is bad per se, but they are bleeding money because of the last few horrible quarters they have have and they really cant afford to take any risks so you really cant blame them.
But hopefully after Platinums work on REvengeance, they shouldnt have a problem finding a new publisher to work with because they are truly a remarkable company.
Then license the games out to other companies to localize them then. I don't understand how some high profile games are just left to rot overseas when there's a market for them in the US/EU. If Yakuza 5 doesn't get released in the US, I'm raging.
