Armillo might be hitting the European Wii U eShop on July 3
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
It’s been a long wait for Armillo, but the game is almost ready for release. It may only be a couple of weeks away – at least in Europe – based on a new listing on the eShop.
If the Wii U eShop is correct, Armillo will launch in Europe on July 3. One would also think that the North American launch would take place at around the same time.
