Fez, the long-awaited Xbox Live Arcade platformer by independent developer Phil Fish, is finally complete.
A tweet from Fish's Polytron studio last night confirms that the game, which was originally intended to be released in early 2010, has been submitted to Microsoft for certification. While the time a game takes to clear certification varies, Polytron appears to be targeting an April release.
"When we said Fez was coming out in Q2 2012," another tweetreads, "what we really meant was Q1 of Q2 2012."
In October, Fez was named Best In Show at the Indiecade festival in California. Fish, along with Braid developer Jonathan Blow andSuper Meat Boy creators Team Meat, stars in Indie Game: The Movie, the TV rights to which have been bought by US network HBO.
