Sega has finally announced a European release date for Platinum Games’ Anargy Reigns.
It will be released on January 11th in the UK.
That game’s road to market has been a troubled one.
As long ago as May 2011 the game was pushed back to 2012 (http://www.mcvuk.com/news/read/anarchy-reigns-slips-to-2012/03694), with a July 2012 date touted (http://www.mcvuk.com/news/read/july-release-for-sega-s-anarchy-reigns/088728) just before Christmas last year.
Platinum Games then reacted badly (http://www.mcvuk.com/news/read/sega-delays-finished-anarchy-reigns-in-the-west/096698) to Sega’s decision to delay what the studio described as a “finished” title. And it got even grumpier when a second delay was revealed in July, even going as far as to openly criticise the publisher (http://www.mcvuk.com/news/read/sega-delays-anarchy-reigns-again-and-platinum-isn-t-happy-again/098135) online.
The action outing arrived in Japan in July, though failed to storm the charts as hoped.
