Titan Studios recently posted on their blog addressing some of the key issues with their recent strategy game Fat Princess. Players were reporting instances of significant lag and connection failures, so like any developer should, they’re getting right on the problems. The reason behind the lag is due to a flawed matchmaking system, which may match you with a person with a very high ping to the servers.
The developer claims they already have a fix in testing for the lag issues. As for the connection failures, the patch is currently going through official Sony testings, so we can expect a fix for everything very soon.

After an unfortunate delay, we finally have the news that Fat Princess will be hitting the PlayStation Network this Thursday, according to the official PlayStation Blog. This is a simultaneous worldwide release, so North American, European, and Asian markets will all get the game at the same time. The Japanese version, however, is still being worked out.
A nice little interview with developers Chris Millar and Craig Leigh from Titan Studios can be viewed after the jump.
Fat Princess will retail for $14.99.

The cake was a lie! Or at least it is a lie this month, as Titan Studios’ downloadable PS3 game Fat Princess has been delayed until later in the summer.
Writing on the European PlayStation Blog, PS Store team member Mike Kebby forwarded the bad news, though he did note that cake will be had by people all over the world once the game is released.
"The game is coming at some point this summer, but there is no confirmed release date at the moment," he wrote.
Have cake and carry fat princesses soon. The game is also in development for PSP.
Epic Games, the ubiquitous creator of Unreal Engine 3 technology and Gears of War series creator, today announced that they have acquired developer Darkstar Industries, the studio behind Fat Princess for the PS3. The company has now been renamed Titan Studios.
Titan Studios will continue its work on the quirky strategy game, as well as create original games and provide technical UE3 support to those who work with Epic Games China.
It is the latest investment for Epic, who recently bought a stake in People Can Fly (Painkiller) and acquired Chair Entertainment (Undertow).
