An announcement for the release date for Rugby Challenge was to be made this week but some “unforseen issues” have pushed back this announcement.
In a statement on the Rugby Challenge Facebook page, the release date for the game in countries outside of NZ, Australia and South Africa is yet to be made and could be released after September 30th now.
The new release window for the game is now between September 23rd and October 21st. Fans in Australia and South Africa will still get the game on September 8th while New Zealand gamers can grab their copy right now…
Here’s the full statement:
We were hoping to announce a release date for Europe/UK/USA sometime this week but we have come up with a few unforeseen issues and unfortunately we now need to revise our plans. The new window for the expected release is now between the 23rd of September 2011 and 21st of October 2011.
My sincerest apology to all the fans, but all efforts and resources are in use to get this product to market as soon as possible.
Please be patient a little longer, once you play Rugby Challenge you will quickly forget the anguish of waiting.
Best regards,
Sebastian Giompaolo MD.
