River City: Tokyo Rumble will have a limited edition physical release
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 6 Comments
Initially, River City: Tokyo Rumble was only going to be distributed as a digital title. But while an eShop release is still planned, Natsume vice president of operations Graham Markay has now confirmed to Polygon that a limited edition physical release is in the works as well.
Markay told the site:
“[Tokyo Rumble] was going to be digital-only. You don’t have to sell to retail or try to explain or try to get the physical product placed on store shelves [with online exclusive releases]. That gives you the ability to take a few more chances.”
“When we announced [Tokyo Rumble], there was an outcry of, ‘It better be physical.’ So we’re going to do a limited edition physical release.”
River City: Tokyo Rumble is scheduled for release this year.
