SCEE operates independently of other Sony Computer Entertainment regions in this area, and can decline a game as it is approved elsewhere.Īshraf said there is often a lot of secrecy around when a game is released on the EU PlayStation Store or if it's passed QA because "QA is highly confidential information and we are not permitted to communicate it". There are also issues around approval and quality assurance. "There's generally so many factors that can often lead to games being delayed or totally cancelled for specific regions, and sometimes this cannot be helped." Certain games also retain licenses only in certain territories or have expired rights. "What is often forgotten is the EU consists of not just one or two countries - it includes a variety (36!), meaning a lot more localising must be done. "Licensing, market and a host of other business and non-business decisions all play a part," Ashraf said. In February this year Sony blamed this on licensing and localisation work. "So regret buying the Season Pass now."Įuropean PlayStation owners are no strangers to PSN game delays and discrepancies between US and EU content. "So us EU Season Pass buyers are getting f***ed over yeahhhhhh," wrote Stephen Johnston. You were also able to pre-purchase the entire five episode seasons for £15.99 to save money and get an exclusive premium theme. The first episode of The Walking Dead arrived on EU PSN on Wednesday 25th April for £3.99.

Those European PS3 owners who forked out for a Walking Dead Season Pass are particularly upset. Johnson's reply: "EU PSN Store is a bit different in terms of releases. " I guess we'll take the two week odd delay on the chin as always #badservice"

"Thanks for screwing over the EU audience as usual," Ellis continued. "Totally understand that! We are working closely with Sony EU to make it happen. Telltale is yet to explain the delay, but Johnson has said he understands fans' frustration. "Factor in the history of silence and it might as well be 'whenever'." "ASAP rings about as good as 'soon' unfortunately," said disgruntled Alasdair Ellis.

But regarding a EU PS Store release, all Telltale has said is that it will be out as soon as possible.Īngry fans have taken to Twitter - and to Telltale manager of public relations and social media Alan Johnson's Twitter page in particular - to vent their fury. If 'Ties That Bind' is any indication of the level of acting, pacing, and writing to be seen this season, fans can rest assured that The Walking Dead will remain high atop their must-play lists.
