Brütal Legend Finally Gets Publisher

Here's some news that probably shouldn't be here. But it's such good news that we'll extend our optimism that Schafer's just playing hard to get for a moment longer. Brütal Legend has a publisher. A publisher that had bloody well better tell him to release the game on PC.

Tim Schafer has posted the press release on the Double Fine blog to announce the news that EA Partners would be making sure the game reaches us.

"Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: ERTS) and Double Fine Productions, Inc. today announced that they have signed an exclusive publishing agreement that will bring the highly-anticipated rock-adventure Brütal Legend™ to gamers, headbangers, roadies and rockers worldwide next Fall."

And that's the last we'll mention of the game until it gets confirmed for PC. Or their offices lie smouldering. (Thanks again to TPS).
