Does anyone have a release date for this one? I know it got delayed.... Thanks.
"NeocoreGames is proud to announce that the Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing: Final Cut is going to be released on September 23, 2015,"

They announced on the 7th that it has been delayed, yet again http://www.neocoregames.com/2015/10/van-helsing-final-cut-delayed-again-sign-up-for-closed-beta/
No new release date given this time. But i guess they are learning. Shelling a bugged product as the final version would not be good business, if they want to release a good, nice Warhammer 40k aRPG. So they need to get Van Helsing right, before fully concentrating on a new game. I don't mind the delay if they can pull a relatively bug-free game this time.
Thanks everyone!
It:s out on Steam...

Waiting for slow GOG Release.....

Does anyone have the newer release date?
I thought there was a big huff about mandatory login or something, even for single player? Damn, someone here had a link... If it is the case then they're probably 'fixing' the login crap first.

The game was released on Steam on 6 November and the developer's comments regarding the GOG release were "later". Nothing more specific.

I'm not sure about that login stuff but, initially, there was some ruckus about the game requiring a Neocore account and an online connection to access the endgame content. They eventually released a patch to enable offline mode for the endgame content.
Hopefully someone from GOG can comment. Thanks to all for the replies.

I emailed support at GOG and this is the response I got.

"Hello

I'm afraid that I can't comment on any upcoming deals and releases (or lack thereof). I can only assure you that we're doing everything possible to get our hands on the best content possible.

Unfortunately the process can be very complicated. There are many variables to take into account when trying to secure distribution rights from a publisher or developer, and it's not always possible to come to a compromise that satisfies all . This is especially true for GOG, as we want to uphold our core values (like no copy protection, or fair pricing), which do not always fit well into how the industry generally works. It gets even more complex with old content, esepecially games, whose rights are often in a state of “legal limbo”.

Check out this Q/A video, featuring one of my superiors - Marcin Iwinski, for a first-hand view of how it works:

Also, I strongly suggest checking out Community Wishlist - while this won't make us get rights for these titles all of a sudden, every vote counts! :)

Finally, please stay tuned and check out our news page every week for new release info.

GOG.com Support"

So GOG doesn't want to give any actual information, and Neocore is dragging it's feet as well.

Well I voted for it, but there is so few people who vote for it. Maybe they assume the game will come and does not need to vote for it?

Edit: I check steam page and it appears that they are rolling out a patch yesterday. Maybe they want to wait for a stable build before putting it on GoG?
