Apparently, Ubisoft sent out a press release announcing that they would be handling the European release of the highly anticipated RPG, Fallout 3. This is still relegated to rumor though, as the only source for this information so far comes from 4player.de, a German gaming site:
Ubisoft has gone into agreement with Bethesda Softworks and has become the seller of the post-apocalyptic role-playing game in large parts of Europe, including Germany, Switzerland and Austria. This comes from a press release of the publisher. In this it stays with the indicated release date of Autumn this year. Alain Corre, Executive Director with Ubisoft knows that expectations are enormous for the popularly anticipated sequel and is sure, “that Fallout 3 will have the success of the earlier blockbuster, like for example TES IV: Oblivion.”
This is less surprising news when you realize that Ubisoft also published the European versions of Bethesda’s previous title, Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Either way, hopefully our gaming brethren across the Atlantic will be getting their Fallout fix soon as well.
