Gord Lacey · Feb 20, 2012

FarSight Studios has reported that the XBox 360 version should be ready for download at the end of March. A date will be posted here once it's confirmed.

Update: The XBox website is now showing a release date of March 28 for the game.

Update 2: The game has been moved to April 4.

When is Texas' big pinball convention again? I read they will be demoing the console versions and will have firm release dates for Xbox and PS3 then.

PiN WiZ · Feb 23, 2012

The Texas Pinball Festival takes place March 23-25 where FarSight should have a live demo up and running. Also heard FarSight is set to announce the first set of DLC tables there as well (which is why I don't think we'll see any DLC till April). Because of the timing of the festival, I think FarSight may release TPA on consoles and other platforms the following week (March 28?).

Wednesday 28 March would do for me..

Gord Lacey · Feb 25, 2012

Looks like you'll get your wish, Jan.

This lists March 28 as the release date.

Jan Duin · Feb 25, 2012

Great! Now if only the date is the same for PS3 in Europe..

Bowflex · Feb 26, 2012

Can't wait! one more month. Why must there be a leap day this year?

This lists March 28 as the release date.

The odd thing is that it also lists Crave as the publisher, with the crave logo in one of the pictures for the game.

I noticed that Crave logo also... CD versions coming maybe?

PiN WiZ · Mar 5, 2012

As far as I know, Crave is not involved with this project. The artwork above was probably just used as a place holder until FarSight submitted the official artwork. I don't think we'll see a retail version unless FarSight decides to release one after they have a certain amount of tables released.

Maybe a retail version after 20 tables or so... for the people without internet?

I could definitely see FarSight doing this sometime down the road if TPA is successful (which I for one believe it will be).

"if TPA is successful" They have already had over 1,000,000 downloads, aint no "if" about it anymore

Success will all depend on how many people are willing to pay for the new tables "every" month. That'll be the real test and I hope enough people will realize this once in a lifetime opportunity for all pinball fans (new and old) and not let it slip away prematurely.

On the other hand if it is that successful via download for consoles, a disc version would not necessarily get a huge amount of sales. No point in selling a product everyone has.

The Pinball Arcade
The Xbox 360 version has past certification testing by Microsoft and we can now officially announce that the game will be released for 360 on April 4th.

PinMike8666 · Mar 29, 2012

That's good to hear. I can wait another week and have the points setup.

Jeff Strong · Mar 29, 2012

Just one more week!

You may all be on your own once TPA is released.
