The POSTAL III launch, in concert with Russian publisher Akella, represents the first worldwide deal for the infamous game franchise. “This is a great day for RWS but, more importantly, for POSTAL Fans around the world," proclaimed RWS CEO Vince Desi. "We welcome gamers everywhere to play for themselves and see what they’ve been missing.”
POSTAL III delivers the return of The Postal Dude, among the most memorable characters in video game history, as well as Virtual Guest Appearances by singing sensation Randy Jones (from The Village People), Playboy Playmate Jennifer Walcott and porn superstar Ron Jeremy. Or, as Desi put it: "We cover the rainbow of society."
Since the 1997 release of the original POSTAL, Running With Scissors has relentlessly generated a sequel, several add-on games, a feature film and built a global fan following.
Initially available in PC format, deals are already in motion to bring the game to console format. "It's been a long, hard journey to get it here," Akella's Andrew Belkin acknowledged. "But I couldn't have written a happier ending than seeing POSTAL III on Steam!"
