Frogwares is self-publishing this version but we\u2019re not a big company and don\u2019t have the resources to handle such a complex process ourselves. So, we\u2019re focusing on the digital release first and might release a physical edition later.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>Have you been looking forward to this one?
