Astronite is available for Pre-Order at Funstock

They have said on a previous tweet that even though they are publishing it, it won't be exclusive to their online store.

No Man's Sky is up on Gamestop. Personally, I'm waiting for it to open on Amazon.

And much to my delight, Into the Breach coming via Fangamer.

It's about **** time!

@Magician do you think Into The Breach will be exclusive to Fangamer?

@MarioBrickLayer
Videogamesplus.ca has been stocking a lot of Fangamer's newer releases.

Which has been a great option for me, since VGP.CA has much cheaper shipping prices to the UK than Fangamer does.

Bugsnax is even getting a EU release through GAME.

Not many have though, it's usually bigger names like Stardew Valley and Hollow Knight.

Strange Brigade is the next release from Super Rare Games (standard + steelbook), I had never heard of it...has anyone played it?

This is the launch trailer:-

@RupeeClock Thanks!! I placed my first order with them thanks to your last post rather than using Play Asia.

Spotted that Death's Door is getting an EU retail release for Switch and PS5.

This doesn't use the Special Reserve Games brand, and follows similar EU releases like Hotline Miami Collection, or Carrion.

@RupeeClock That's a bit annoying, I ordered a copy from Special Reserve, I probably wouldn't have done if I knew this was coming...

Super Rare releasing Strange Brigade makes me glad I'm a club member.

The fanbase for Rebellion are rabid, those 5k copies will fly.

@Magician
This game looks like a Left 4 Dead kind of game, which isn't the sort of thing I think I'd play or enjoy myself.
Not every Super Rare release is gonna be for me, but there's been a lot that've piqued my interest.

@RupeeClock

It's more solo-friendly than L4D, but yes the concept is the same. Move from A to B, horde mode, move from B to C, repeat. If you enjoy Rebellion's Zombie Army series, it's much the same. Only Strange Brigade is more Indiana Jones and less Night of the Living Dead.

Am I right in saying the only Switch game Rebellion have released without a physical edition now is Battlezone?

I think their full list of releases is:-

Sniper Elite V2
Sniper Elite 3
Sniper Elite 4
Zombie Army Trilogy
Zombie Army 4
Strange Brigade
Battlezone

Just an FYI, Special Reserve just put out an email regarding retail releases with some Q&A. I guess a lot of people have been reaching out to them about that lately.

Nier: Automata physical release confirmed.
Mega Man: Battle Network Legacy physical release confirmed.
Persona 5 Royal physical release confirmed, although 3 and 4 appear to be digital only.
Pac-Man World Re-Pac is getting a physical release in Japan...at the very least. English supported.
Harvestella is getting a physical release in Japan...at the very least. English supported.
Dragon Quest Treasures is getting a physical release in Japan...at the very least. English supported.
RPG Time is getting a physical release in Japan...at the very least. English supported.

English Pac-Man World Re-Pac physical edition is up for preorder on the Bandai Namco store. Other storefronts presumably to come.

@SometimesGhost
Unfortunately this storefront redirects to different sites if you're outside of the US, so I can't even browse the contents you're seeing.

@Magician
Really happy to see so many of these high-profile releases getting physical releases, too.
It looks like the Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection is, like always, going to skip a European release though.

@Magician I am also glad for the SRG club membership (for the first time) because I also have the feeling that Strange Brigade will be sold really fast.

Okay, been going to backtrack a few of my games I am missing. And outside Orochi, Tenbou and 9 Empires, is there another Warriors game that got a physical release that supports English in some form?

@Paraka - Samurai Warriors 5. You also have both Zelda musou games and Fire Emblem musou games. Then we have the two Fate/Extella games. As well as One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3 & 4. And then Persona 5 Strikers.

P.S. - Next up from RAG is Chinatown Detective Agency.

@Magician - I forgot the licensed ones were also Omega Force. My bad. I was intending the K-T originals, sounds like I got them for better or worse considering the others are all licensed.

Thanks for the heads up.
