Will launch simultaneously in fourteen countries

"Why do they make it so hard to turn on the TV!"

GameTap has released word that Myst Online: Uru Live will hit PCs on February 15. Fear not for those of us not in Canada or the US, as the game will be made available as a direct download from the official website. While Australia has made the initial fourteen country cut, New Zealand folks will have to wait a bit longer to get their hands on the game.

While players can already delve into Myst through the online beta, the official release will mark the introduction of a new area and multiplayer puzzle to the game, and further new content is expected to be released on a regular basis following the initial launch period.
