SiN 2 gets Steam release - briefly

- Post a comment According to Eurogamer,
Ritual Entertainment's long-awaited Sin 2 will be released episodically through
Valve's Steam digital distribution system, with episodes lasting around six
hours each to be released "every three to four months" for around $20 (L11.38)
an episode. The first episode is set to be released on Steam this Winter, but
it's not yet known whether the game will also be released in boxed form.
In a rare interview with PC Gamer, Ritual CEO Steve Nix said: "We've been
talking to Valve about Steam for about four years now, and we've always wanted
to get back to the SiN universe. "We talked to publishers about doing it, but we
never felt able to make the product we wanted to make with the next SiN." That
is, until the relative freedom offered by Steam came along; something several
developers must be seriously looking into at this point.
