Who says new games can't come out on Christmas Day? Battlefront.com says, "We will do it," with its planned release of the English version of PT Boats: Knights of the Sea. The publisher does indeed plan to release the WWII naval simulation game via mail order or download on Christmas Day.

The title, which is still one of the few that supports DirectX10 graphics, was previously released in Europe by its creators Akella. Battlefront.com is currently holding a pre-order special that will allow folks to purchase the download-mail order box combo copy $45 instead of the usual $55 price tag. The official demo for the game will be released a few days after the game ships.
