Found this poking around on play a while ago. I was a little surprised to see it to be honest, didn't think it'd be the kind of thing that any companies would get around to releasing over here. Now, the problem is, there's no trace of it on amazon.co.uk and no listing in the BBFC's database. A quick bout of googling got me nowhere either.

I don't tend to keep up on licensing much, so amazon and the BBFC are the only places I could think to check. So, anyone know if this is an actual release, or is it just that someone at play is an eternal optimist?

Well, it has been licensed by Geneon, and afaik, only Geneon, so I'd presume they're releasing it.

Not necessarily, Geneon released Last Exile in the states, while ADV are releasing it over here. Nothing on ADV's site about HR, and there's no sign of a european Geneon website either.

You could perhaps send play.com an email to see who publishes it, and then give them a shout. Yet I don't see any reason why play.com would put it up there if there is noone planning to publish it.
