Time for an update

Well, the preliminary release date in Europe and USA is autumn 2008. And we will sure report to you as soon as the exact date will be specified.

So, 6 months after it's released in Russia. Great!

you may laugh at me, but Im brazillian (we speak portuguese here), and started learning the basics of russian reading so I can play the game. Since I dont want to understand everything is happening, just the basics, I think a 2 weeks study time will be enough. At least to play a few skirmish games of KB!

These sites helped me a lot :

Unfortunately or fortunately (depends on the player ) King's Bounty belongs to the category of games where dialogues and the whole story line play a major role. There is also quite a number of jokes in dialogues. All of this together makes a lot of text and localization is one of the most tough points here. This is the reason why it will take several months before the game is released outside of Russia.

King's Bounty is one the biggest titles coming out this year and we really want to make everything good and translate the game in a proper way, so you can enjoy it.
Thanks for understanding!

Well, I was really looking foward to this game, it will probably just drop off the radar now.

I don't really think that a couple extra months is a disaster and believe that gamers would prefer to play in a properly translated and voice-overed English game rather than buy something half-baked but several months earlier.

So a couple months? As in two months? Ya, that wouldn't be so bad. But it was said that it was comming in Autumn...which is 6 months away.

Anyways...I obviously was a bit rash, and will still get the game whenever it comes out. Just having to wait half a year longer really stinks...I could probably learn to speak russian by then and just buy the russian version lol.
