Gurumin 3D: A Monstrous Adventure missed its original summer release window, but the game is still coming soon. Very soon, in fact. Mastiff announced today that Gurumin 3D is heading to North America on October 13. Those who purchase it through October 31 will receive the “Gurumin Party Time Theme” at no extra cost.

For those in Europe, there’s no need to worry. Gurumin 3D is still planned for PAL regions, and a date “will be revealed soon.”

That means you probably won’t be able to stray too far away from your television while playing.
