Woo hoo! The game is official what's known in the games world as "gold", which means gold masters have been made, and various factories in the middle of nowhere are currently doing very little apart from churning out discs of Football Manager 2008.http://fm08.footballmanager.net/en/article/101/1686.html
Which should mean me being asleep. But no, I'm taking my zzz time and ploughing it into writing more blogs. And have had a much needed haircut and the beard has gone, although currently smell funny, as the person who cut my hair decided to pour half a tonne of aftershave on my head for no apparent reason.
Anway, today's blog is an easy one to write, as it's been handed to me on a plate by the guys over at SEGA. Because, now that we're gold, and the clever people in their operations department have worked out how long it takes to ship the games to the different countries around the world, we have release dates.
(drum roll please)
UK, Ireland, Italy, France, Portugal, Greece, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland, Denmark, Belgium, Holland and any other European countries where the game is normally released apart from the countries below, the release dare will be Friday October 19th. Which really isn't very far away at all.
In Spain, the game will be released on October 26th. Which is slightly later, but we're trying something new in Spain, and will be selling from kiosks for the first time, which is very exciting. There'll be a bit more news about that in tomorrow's blog, coz there's some very cool stuff going on over there.
In Australia, the game will be released on October 25th.
In the Czech Republic, the game will be out on 1st November, and in Poland 8th November. The reason for the delay is to ensure that the translations are spot on for your countries.
For those in Japan, you'll be able to get a fully translated version of the game on December 10th and Korea are planning on launching on 1st November.
Worldwide Soccer Manager will be released in the USA, Canada and Mexico on October 23rd as a boxed version exclusively from www.amazon.com, or as a digital download.
Futbol Manager will also be released as a digital download for the rest of South and Central America on the same day, October 23rd
We are still awaiting firm releases dates for Australia (expected to be released before the end of October), Korea and Japan, but once those are in, we'll let you know.
Cheers
Miles
