The CITIES XL Website now announces an October 9 North American release date for CITIES XL, Monte Cristo's urban planning game. The October 9 date was first announced last month but was followed by a quick correction stating this date was only confirmed for Europe, and a North American date would follow (which it now has). Word is:

North American players, rejoice! Monte Cristo is glad to announce the release of Cities XL in North America on October, 9th.
