wicked witch tweeted two days ago that they were close to announcing a release date

I am beginning to think that at some point here, Ashton Kutcher is going to come out and tell us that this game is a fake and was never actually going to be released.

A couple of distributors have the release date listed as Nov 27. It's not official, but I wouldn't be surprised if that turns out pretty close.

Still nothing...the wait continues.

Played a bit of RC2 this week and was reminded that despite its flaws, if the career mode any kind of player progression I'd most likely still be playing it.

Yes RC2 is still a good game but the whole series have a lot more potential. I know the studio is not a big one and they're probably limited in resources but it was a good opportunity to have good sales because of the World Cup.

It is shocking they didn't capitalize on the timing of the world up. Heck, even announce the release date and try and get more preorders due to it.

Anxiously awaiting...Wicked Witch's Twitter said to expect an announcement soon, and that was on 10/7.

The wait continues.

It's the only positively reviewed rugby union franchise in the world right now, so maybe they're thinking that there will be demand for the game regardless of when it's released. Who knows. One thing's for sure, NEVER trust a developer when they say details (or any info, ftm) are coming soon, lol.

I am just amazed that there has been literally ZERO marketing or communication about it. I get that these guys don't have the same marketing budget as EA, but dude... social media is free. how about a screenshot every other week? maybe a tweet saying "dont worry, the game is coming. announcing a release date soon. this game isn't a hoax, promise. we're really making it. we're a real company, for real."

i hope they're better at making video games than they are at marketing and PR... my goodness.
