Rising Star Games has announced it will be publishing infamous Xbox 360 game Deadly Premonition in PAL territories. An autumn release is planned.

“Having seen how Deadly Premonition split reviewers’ opinions in America, gamers are itching to get their hands on it to judge it for themselves,” said Martin Defries, managing director, Rising Star Games. “We have high hopes for what can only be described as the most distinctive survival horror game that has ever been released – it’s going to be interesting to see how the game is received over here. It’s a cult classic in the making.”

And split opinion it has. The game was awarded a 10/10 by Destructoid, while IGN called the title “truly awful in nearly every way” and handed out a 2/10 score.

In the game players take on the role of FBI Special Agent Francis York, charged with investigating the shocking, ritualistic and brutal murder of a local girl.

There’s no firm release date just yet, but Rising Star Games has confirmed it’ll be available at the low price of £24.99 at launch.
