Patience pays off.
Anarchy Reigns was set to be released in North America and Europe for the Xbox 360 and PS3 this past summer. Only Japan got the game in July. Sega has announced the game will be hitting North America and Europe in January for half the price of a normal retail title.
The North American release is set for Jan. 8 for $29.99, while Europe will get the game on Jan. 11. Head past the jump to see Sega's press release.
"SEGA of America, Inc. and SEGA Europe Ltd. are pleased to announce their groundbreaking multiplayer brawler Anarchy Reigns will launch on January 8th 2013 in the US and January 11th 2013 in Europe, for the PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system and Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system.

Fernando's POV: I've played the import of this game a few times and it's insane online. Sega did the right thing by reducing the price for North America and Europe. They're making up for delaying the game when there was nothing wrong with it.
