The Walking Dead Season 2 PS3 Europe Release

edited December 2013 in The Walking Dead

I don't know why but can someone at TTG just say why Xbox gets a worldwide release and not PS3, I cannot see the logic whatsoever in doing that. You will get more sales releasing it now and Xbox has it already worldwide so... why not PS3? Do you hold a grudge or what? I don't.. I literally cannot figure it out, seriously.

  • Generally when something like that happens, it has to do with licensing and how releases are handled in a certain region, rather than any kind of publisher grudge or issue. It's just how the entertainment industries work.

  • I would like to know this too.

    As an european living in Denmark, and been playing the PS systems since PS1, I am pissed that everyone else get to play The Walking Dead S2 within a week, except PS3 players from EU. I mean come on........

  • But Xbox Europe is getting it so...

  • Different companies, different platforms, different licensing.

    Because Xbox updates internationally on Fridays and Wednesdays,
    while PSN updates on Tuesdays in North America and Wednesdays in Europe.

    And that's all there is to it.

  • Okay thanks, I hope they keep there promise. Enjoy Season 2 in about 35 minutes is it? I hope its as good as everyone says it is, and 400 Days was released July 2nd wasn't it? An PS3 Europe got it on the 10th so I can kinda wait but its gonna be hard to resist clicking videos of it.

    I hope and I think so. There hasn't been official confirmation of that (Mods here are voluntary!), but to my knowledge, the French PSN has flat out announced it already.

  • Okay, its just they write NA next to PS3 on Twitter and not WW as they did WW on Xbox so that kinda makes me think its wrong but if it is a day I'm okay I guess, videos take time to upload so It'll be like 8:00PM when its out so I would've probably logged off Google and jjst play random games.

  • I am in Western Australia the time is 7:17 pm on 18 December. I use a PS3 on the Download Content section of the game I have season 1, 400 days and the season pass that I have brought. When the hell does the Second season show up? I have tried the PS Store and I can see even TWD: Survival Insistence but not all that remains? When is the Australian release date and how do I know when it is available?

    Thank you for your help.
