No Longer On The "Coming Soon" Page

Distant Worlds is a vast, pausable real-time, 4X space strategy game which models a "living galaxy" with incredible options for replayability and customizability. Experience the full depth and detail of large turn-based strategy games, but with the simplicity and ease of real-time, and on the scale of a massively-multiplayer online game. Now greatly enhanced with the new Universe release, which includes all four previous releases as well as the new Universe expansion!

No Longer On The "Coming Soon" Page

Post by tgb »

Being somewhat familiar with the Matrix release mechanism, I take this to mean it is close to being released in the next day or two.

I hope this turns out to be right. A weekend of Distant Worlds sounds a lot more appealing than all the odd jobs my missus has lined up for me! [:D]

EDIT: Bah, it's still on the Coming Soon bit for me. :(

I should have been clearer - I'm referring to the "Coming Soon" page in the store/Digital River

It has never been in the Coming Soon section in the store - that's rarely used. The Products section coming soon page is the one we typically post upcoming product in.

Folks, try hard to see the positive side to this! It just means the devs are working hard to get this game perfect![8D] (So much for my previous "glass half-empty comments" )

Distant Worlds WAS there the other day and now I noticed yesterday and today it is gone.
