Unknown Australian Release now ?

from Sins Forums
Hi,

Not to startle you guys, but with the recent trouble at AURAN who is the publisher for this game here in Australia, I am wanting to know what is happening to the release here in Australia.

I'm wanting to know from the guys at Ironclad if this somehow effects the release here?

Yarlen said just a couple of days ago that Auran had told him they were aiming for an April release (though I don't know how recently it was they told him that).

It was last month. Auran's development division was the one having issues. Their publishing/distribution arm is not affected. Sins release in Australia/New Zealand is currently set for April.

Ah ok,

Thank you for the info,

But geez, a 2 month Gap between releases(between countries), that can't be good (sales/piracy wise)?

Thanks anyway :)

I don't know. My instinct is to say probably not, but you may be able to import one or you can always buy a copy direct from us.
