Sins of a Solar Empire in the UK

Post by Jade Falcon »

Does anyone know when this game is to be released in the UK. I asked both at my local Game and Gamestation, neither know the release date. There is a guy on Ebay offering it at a cheap buy it now, but apparently most of his games are russian version imports that sometimes have issues. I've nothing against imports, hell, for me it was the only way the get the RPG The Fall, Last Days of Gaia, but I would prefer a UK version.

Why not buy it online from Stardock?

I'm not sure if there's a UK version planned, but you can buy it online at
http://sinsofasolarempire.com/store.aspx

You can buy just the download version for $44.99 or for $5 + shipping the download plus the box, so you don't really need to wait for a retailer to get it for you.

Amusingly, there IS no UK distributor. All that dev time, all those US sales, and they don't have a distribution deal. Heh. It's out this month in AU.

But yeah, just buy it online. It's not like Steam, there's no DRM, and you pay make them send you a box if you've got some disability where you can't burn your own disks. It's even cheaper, ludicrously so in AU.
