Age of Booty will be arriving on the European PlayStation Store on the 27th of November.

This is the official word from Capcom’s blog who also noted that the game “plays nicely across territories (North America, Europe and Asia) so EU gamers should find plenty of people to matchmake with right away.”

Capcom’s upcoming real-time multiplayer strategy game Age of Booty has been priced at $10.

In a post on Capcom’s Unity Blog, Daryl revealed that after checking out the final version of the game two of his friends said they would buy it for $10 while one said he would fork out as much as $20. The lucky friends only got to see the multiplayer game play over LAN, so the single player mode, map editor and match ranking system are still under wraps.

Although we don’t know an exact release date yet, Capcom recently announced that Microsoft is taking a look at the build for Xbox Live Arcade and that Sony would soon get their hands on the PlayStation Network version. According to a comment by Daryl on the blog, the game is expected to arrive in early October.

Daryl promised more information on the demo soon but he did confirm that the XBLA and PSN trials will be available on release day.
