So Activision changed their minds after so long? What a change of heart.

"After so long" ?  It's only been 4 months.

ActiVision said a couple months ago that they had reopened negotiation for the game's release.

Those guys have been in talks with Activision for years.

Nice to see that profit isn't the only thing Activision cares about (not that there's anything wrong with caring about profit... Wink )

If you didn't see them yesterday, there are some interviews with TSL team members around the net, all linked from the Phoenix Online blog.

One even has (somewhat spoiler-y) game play footage.

I'm so happy to see all the hard work on this project reach fruition!

Just as a note to those who may be disappointed, it's not very long and doesn't consist of very many puzzles (it has like one puzzle). But it's only meant as an introduction episode to get you reacquainted with the world of King's Quest. The next episode is supposed to be twice as long or so.
