Child of Eden may not have been a hit with mainstream consumers, but it is undeniable that critics did love Miziguchi's latest masterpiece. Could it be possible that Ubisoft will be giving it out as a downloadable game in the future?

Ubisoft Senior VP of sales and marketing, Tony Key, addressed that issue at their San Francisco headquarters. "Potentially," was his first reply when asked of this scenario, particularly, for Xbox Live.

Expounding on that, however, it appears that it's not going to be happening any time soon. "We don't use that model right now for any of our games -- we sell new retail games. It's not something we have in the plan at the moment, but if that model is coming, I don't see why Child of Eden couldn't fit in there."

They're not absolutely closed on the idea, at least. Besides, with a new Kinect bundle coming out for Child of Eden, Ubisoft is hopeful that this will reignite interest for the game. "We think the renewed interest from this new bundle could be a tipping point for Child of Eden to become a bigger brand for us. We would love to have that happen."

And we would love for that to happen, too. After all, it should be a good opportunity for them to showcase some more what Child of Eden really has to offer.



Child of Eden is also heading to the PS3, but has been given a new release date.
