Titus Interactive announced today that
Virgin Interactive Entertainment, its distribution subsidiary, is changing its name. From now on, all games developed by the Group (Titus /
Interplay) will be distributed in Europe through the new brand:
Avalon Interactive. For the second semester of 2003, Avalon Interactive will release several titles including
Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance 2 (PS2, Xbox),
Fallout Brotherhood of Steel (PS2, Xbox),
Lionheart (PC),...and
Galleon (Xbox, PC). The last one is quite a surprise since the PC version was apparently cancelled several months ago, and
this page still list Galleon for Xbox and GameCube only. I guess we'll learn soon enough if it's just a typo or not :)
