Looks like that slip-up earlier was in fact the real deal, as it’s now official — SEGA has taken up publishing duties for High Voltage Software’s Quantum 3-powered sci-fi shooter The Conduit.

“The Conduit is one of the most talked-about Wii games this year and High Voltage Software has only scratched the surface of the game in terms of what they have shown so far,” says Simon Jeffery, President of SEGA of America, Inc. “They have proven that graphical and technological innovation can be exciting to the Wii market, and SEGA is thrilled to partner with a team that truly shares our belief in the Wii’s gaming potential beyond the casual market.”

Good to hear it finally has a publisher. Now all there’s left to do is wait for the impending spring 2009 release. SEGA sent out a fresh batch of screenshots along with the announcement, so hit the jump for those.
