The US release date is now 10th February 2008 and the for Japanese the 24th January 2008. The reason; more development time is needed needed to complete the stuffed beat em' up. With the amount of features already boasted it makes us wonder what else they have to add unless we are to be updated each day about bug fixes.

Nevertheless the game will stay at the top of our lists, albeit very disappointing to those hoping to play it over the holidays.

Additionally to lighten the situation, the Dojo informed us there will a limited but playable demo available at E for All in a matter of days. We will gather up all the first impressions from the event so we can see if it is really worth the wait.
