Germany has reportedly banned the ability to preorder video games with unspecified release dates.
As reported by Eurogamer (via the German site Heise), retailers can no longer offer preorders for games without an explicit release date, meaning games that are simply "coming soon" can't be preordered.
A consumer protection group brought the issue to the Higher Regional Court of Munich, which determined that customers have a right to know when a game is coming before putting money down on it.
