Confirmation needed from EPIC: UT3 out on 12th in Germany ?

[fuegerstef]

In an article by the German Magazine "Gamestar" UT3 is out on November the 12th in Germany. One week before the US release.

Is this really the truth?

Midway Germany says something according the lines of: We wanna thank the true German fans of this franchise with the early release. And that the German community added a huge part of the UT franchise's sucess in the past.

Sorry, I only have a few minutes to type, so the translation is a bit shabby, here is the link:

Confirmation eluded and ignored.

edit: Its also likely that they get the early release because the DVD stamping factory that Epic uses is IN Germany. Not 100% sure, but I'm pretty sure it is.

Epic does not decide the release dates after the game has gone gold. They ship the master disk to the publisher who makes the release date decisions. You should go post this question in the Midway forums. It will likely get ignored/locked/deleted there also though.

So is this a censored version and dubbed in German?

[Chiln_Viln]

Dont worry, the version that we get is better than the watered down gore version that they get anyways.

I've checked a bunch of Swedish stores, none know when the game is released, and non know about the collectors edition, that's heartening.
