We’ve known since July that Code of Princess would be making its way to Europe. Perhaps it’ll hit store shelves sooner rather than later.

A rating for Code of Princess popped up in Germany’s ratings board, the USK. Agatsuma Entertainment hasn’t said when the game will arrive, but hopefully this finding suggests news will be coming soon.
