A physical release has since before the game even released, but it's nice to see that the day has finally arrived. Pre-orders for the physical edition will be going live exclusively on on 7th November. Strangely enough, the deal with Super Rare took place over a game of chess between company founder George Perkins and CEO of Image & Form, Brjann Sigurgeirsson. In a press release covering the announcement, Perkins says, "I jokingly mentioned that if I beat him he would have to sign with us to release SteamWorld Quest physically! I got beat very, very badly but luckily we still managed to sign the deal". Excitingly, he goes on to say, "I hope we can bring the rest of the amazing SteamWorld series as a physical release in the near future". Yes please. If you need a catch up on what SteamWorld Quest is all about, make sure to . We'll leave just a snippet below: "Remarkably solid and satisfying, SteamWorld Quest: Hand of Gilgamech is a card battler with an abundance of charm in its art, mechanics and writing. The presentation is slick, the dialogue’s witty and the gameplay’s addictive, although nothing about it feels particularly special – not in the way felt special. It does what it does well, though, and it’s still a thoroughly enjoyable time in that universe." Will you be hoping to add a physical copy of the game to your collection? Already own it digitally?

Yep will be getting massive steam world fan x x take care everyone x Nice, would definitely pre-order a copy next week. More physicals plural? Haven't they all been released physically now, at some point? Dig and Heist on Wii U disc, Dig 2 on Switch, and now Gilgamech. That's not to mention ps4 and vita versions. Only ine that didn't get one was Tower Defense, because it was first in the series but it's not available on anything but DSi and they would make nothing on a DSi enhanced cart. Why not a regular physical release? Since i ordered 3 months worth of games in advance my copy is already on its way. I actually already received it today! This is infuriating. I’ve been waiting months to hear the announcement of a physical release. Now I have to be lucky enough to order in the short period of time that extremely limited amount of copies are going to be available? Absolutely shameful. Hoo boy, here's hoping this one doesn't sell out instantly on launch.
But it's also the biggest physical print they've done to date. Super Rare games? Huge pass. Great game, got it in the eShop sale. Just fantastic on Switch. Yes, to reinforce some earlier comments, if you order the current 3-pack that is available it will probably ship right away. The other two included games are The Darkside Detective and Evoland Legendary Edition. it will be available long enough, I have never seen differently with Super Rare. Even after the preorder period probably still something like 30% left. LRG's CEs though are usually the only ones that sell out in minutes, but I am sometimes wondering if scalping is just part of American capitalism. In Europe this happens far less. I love super rare games, but they usually publish games that aren’t so high profile. Don’t like my chances of getting one of these copies...disappointed this is the route Image & Form went I’m not too happy about this myself. I wish all these would just be open preorders for a week or two and then have enough manufactured to meet the amount of orders. I can understand making collector’s editions limited, but not regular versions. Oh, well. I’ll try to score a copy. What about a North American release? Don’t want to take my chancing importing since it’s a one time opportunity, just to have the game release here later. Too bad the game is slow... look at movements.. for people who have patience I guess I tried messaging on their Facebook post with the announcement a little while ago. Asked why they are going SRG instead of self publishing through their Rising Star label. Hopefully some answers turn up. Dig 2 physical is still available on Amazon for the original (or cheaper?) price of $20. I have high confidence copies will be available after the pre-order window ends. Dig 2 wasn’t a Super Rare release, hence why you can get it on Amazon. Quest is strictly through Super Rare. Gotcha. Still though, I recall several games from SRG not selling out before launching and three games that have launched already are still available right now (though not as relevant as SWQ). I much rather see Super Rare Games release physical versions of metroidvania/puzzle-platformers style games like they did with SteamWorldDIG1+2 -especially the second iteration -that one was excellent
Sorry to hear that; I got mine right when the preorder opened, but I work on a computer most of the time, so being ‘available’ and ready with the 16 digits (23.?) around noon, November 7th was easier for me than others. Paying scalpers is beyond aggravating when you ‘miss the boat’ on such titles, agreed.
Oh MAN! Could that happen? That would kill me! If there’s one thing I DO NOT LIKE about this company, it’s there need/desire to center the title on the spine!! Nitpicky-Absolutely-but, I mean, I’m a physical-only freak (except very few situations), so it comes with the territory. Also, no other company I’ve seen does this with their games, so, cmon...what gives?! Leave A Comment Hold on there, you need to to post a comment...
