Linda confirms that the game will be released in Russia this autumn, regardless of an international release, and hints to the fact that thex could indeed have a publisher in the pipeline: 3Dfiles.RU: Buka Entertainment informed us (with the reference to your company) that the Russian version of Wizardry VIII will be released this autumn, and the date of release will be independent from international release, as was planned earlier. Is it possible, that the game will be released only in Russia or it just will be published world-wide considerably later? Linda: I hate to go out on a limb and say this since comments like this have come back to haunt us, but I am hopeful that there will be news on an English release date soon. We expect that if the English version is not actually simultaneous with the Russian release, it should be very close to it, by maybe a month. 3Dfiles.RU: There are rumours, that if Sirtech will get no investments during next month, the company should be closed. What about tech support of Wizardry VIII and other already released titles in this case? Linda: Well, if we get no investment it's probably more accurate to say that there will be no further products developed by Sirtech Canada versus saying the company will be closed. From an actual business perspective, Sirtech Canada will continue as a legal entity but won't actively be working on any new products. As far as supporting Wiz 8 goes, we have made arrangements with key team members that will allow us to produce a patch should one be necessary and there will be a complete hint guide that includes lots of in-depth info about game content.
