No Afrika for Europe, says Sony

gonzab | May 27, 2008 | News | Playstation 3

Sony tells Eurogamer that Afrika is not going to be published in Europe. Now Europeans can only pray it is released on North America translated to English, that way the majority of interested Europeans on this game will be able to import it. Remember, Playstation 3 is region free.

Sony has told Eurogamer that it will not be publishing Afrika in Europe.

The spokesperson was unable to give anything else away, other than to confirm that it will be seeing the light of day in Japan.

Japan, incidentally, is where the third official sighting of the elusive wildlife game has recently taken place in the form of a placeholder website, which shows a rhino waddling across the screen over the words "Coming Soon...".

At least it's not a "killer ap". No one even knows what it's about do they? What we don't know won't annoys us. Yet.

Jeez, not only are they taking their sweet time releasing it, but they won't even be releasing it in Europe?

Well, I'm still interested in it, if it'll ever come to North America....

Thats a bumber, lets hope its released for America. And hopefully sometimes this year! how long has it been devaloped for.

I guess this blows the rumors about this being a "world" for Home out of the water

_{Its not confirmed though. I mean Sony are hypocrites most of the time. They say one thing and do another. This isn't really a surprise imo.}

    Its actually a game being devaloped over in Japan. Its just they chose the title Afrika.
    
    @BANDITO ATTACK- Not much is known about the game. You can look up some trailers of the game. It mostly shows of some cool scenery in the african wildlife. As for how you play it, we don't know.
