For those of you out of the loop, Corpse Party made its initial debut on the PC back in 1996 as a project produced in RPG Maker. Since then, the game received a few ports to different platforms – most notably on the PSP in 2011. When the game was confirmed to be coming to the 3DS, fans in North America rejoiced, but similar news was absent for those who wished to play in Europe. Fortunately, that's all been cleared up now; Corpse Party will be coming to Europe as well.
A listing for the game just popped up on the European eShop, and its evidently not far off from release. The listing shows it as launching on 26th October, which is about when it's expected in North America. No doubt this'll make a fantastic Halloween present to fans; we'll be sure to have a review with our thoughts.
What do you think? Will you be picking this up? Have you played previous ports? Drop us a comment in the section below.

I wonder if that includes Australia.
@YouSeemFRAZZLED
Yeah it will play, however, because Australia has a different rating system, if it hasn't been rated here it can't be sold in stores and it won't be available on the eshop, leaving importing as our only option. One other instance I can think of is Unepic, it's available on the eshop in Europe, but not Australia. I think it's also the same for Binding of Isaac.
Okay seriously?! I had the game on preorder and the original release date was August 30th then a few days before I was going to pick it up they pushed it to October 2nd and NOW they're pushing it further?! This is really trying my patience as a gamer.
I need a Retail boxed copy
wow! might get this!
I think this looks ace, and everyone knows all games are infinitely better on a Nintendo handheld. Want.
Phew, glad I won't have to pirate it to play it.
I may check this out.
"And... exhale"
We haven't been holding our breath for that long, death by asphixiation is never fun.
@shaneoh

Will D/L on day 1...
Thanks you made my day !
Seeing as it's XSeed publishing, that'll be a no to retail.
Oh well, no sale from me then.
Yeah I'm picking this up. It'll be a nice Halloween game.
@RainbowGazelle digital games on the 3DS are the best thing ever! I love having all my games in the console so I always have access to them anywhere without needing to have cartridges with me.
I like physical the best on home consoles but on portables digital really is the way to go.
@plug313 Good for you. I prefer physical.
@RainbowGazelle ok
Allready have the American retail release on preorder.
I've checked everywhere. Looks like no physical release for this in Europe cries uncontrallably
