APB Reloaded set for retail release
14 Jul 2011, 4:24 am

In November last year, online game publisher GamersFirst announced that it had purchased the intellectual property rights to Realtime Worlds' abandoned online multiplayer shooter APB, announcing that the relaunched title, APB Reloaded, would finally see the light of day sometime in 2011. The studio then opened a public beta for the game in February this year.

Now it looks like ABP Reloaded will also be getting a retail release, with North American publishing and distribution company IGS picking up the rights. According to the Facebook page of IGS CEO and founder Paul G Lombardi, the retail version of ABP Reloaded will be released during this year's holiday season, with a retail price of US$29.99.

APB first launched in late June 2010 to tepid critical reception, logging some 130,000 users by late August. Following the game's release, developer Realtime Worlds collapsed, and the game was shut down indefinitely.

Since GamersFirst took over the abandoned project, the publisher's subsidiary, Reload Productions, took charge of the development and maintenance of APB Reloaded.
