On a more positive note in regards to a release that is guaranteed to be happening, Ghostlight have also confirmed this evening that pre-orders for Elminage are set to open next Thursday afternoon. There is currently no word on pricing, which is set to be made available when pre-orders open.
But as a fair warning, if you want to pick yourself up a copy there will only be a total of 300 produced. With any luck Ghostlight will be limiting purchases to one per person, however as there has been no confirmation on this I would remain skeptical about how long the pre-order campaign lasts (Given what has happened in the past with scenarios such as Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch’s Wizard’s Edition).
