FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
BINARY DOMAIN COMING TO PC
‘Hollow Children’ to target Personal Computer users this April
SAN FRANCISCO & LONDON (19th March, 2012) – SEGA® Europe Ltd. and SEGA® of America, Inc. can today reveal that the much anticipated third-person squad shooter Binary Domain™ will be released on PC from April. Having listened to feedback from fans of the title, SEGA are proud to announce that the truly unique story and setting of Binary Domain will now be available to Xbox360, PlayStation 3 and PC gamers.
“As well as the excitement generated by Binary Domain in the console press we were seeing increasing numbers of players asking for a PC version. So we listened and we delivered.” said Gary Knight, Senior Vice President of Marketing at SEGA.
Binary Domain will be released on the PC platform in both boxed and digital formats. Further information can be found from your preferred retailer.
Binary Domain is a pioneering third-person squad shooter from the creators of the Yakuza series. Set in 2080 Tokyo, Binary Domain paints a vivid picture of a country in social and environmental meltdown; players will battle against robotic defences in a city where climate change has forced many to live in extreme poverty in the slums, while the others live in the near future upper city built on top of the lower city. With a central branching storyline, voice recognition in combat and conversation and AAA shooter mechanics Binary Domain offers something genuinely unique to the genre.

I’m glad Sega hasn’t been ignoring the PC (preferred platform). Sonic Generations previously and now Binary Domain, Maybe the Yakuza series next?
I agree. It was great to see a modern Sonic game get a 3D release. Yakuza would surprise me though due to its Sony exclusiveness for the entire series. However, Binary Domain’s multiplatform release may be a hopeful sign for Yakuza 5.
Really good to see Sega giving the PC some love, seems all their recent games as of late have had a PC release at some point.
