Arc System Works USA recently took to Facebook to issue a brief statement on the AWOL patch for Guilty Gear Accent Core Plus R on the North American PlayStation Network. Their full message has been included below.

To our loyal US PS3 gamers: your time has come. The Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R update is just around the corner. Development has come to a close and you’ll have the patch very, very soon! Thanks for hanging in there. We know it’s been rough.

For those not in the know, Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus was released on PlayStation Network and Xbox Live last year. While Xbox 360 fans had their games patched to the R arcade specifications months ago, North American PlayStation 3 owners have been left wanting. While the update was initially promised to come out by the end of 2013, many fans continue to wait that big, teal “R” on their title screen.

Obviously, there is no exact date specified, but it appears their waiting may finally be over. We’ll be sure to keep you updated as more information is provided.
