White Knight Chronicles Gets Q1 Release, Town-Building Announced
It has been announced that White Knight Chronicles, the console role-playing RPG released last Christmas in Japan, is targeting a Q1 2010 release in North America. This means that the game will take over a year to get over here. The reason? Level-5 is working on adding extra content to the game, which will be included on the disc.
Other features that will be included in the western version of the game
is a new autorun feature, and improvements to the targeting system. Also, the extra online missions released for the Japanese version of the title will be included on the disc of the game. Level-5 will also be adding an intriguing new feature, which will allow you to create your own town in the online mode of the game.
Level-5 is looking into getting the Japanese voices into the western version, so gamers won’t have to deal with the usual annoying voice-overs we see in English versions of Japanese titles. The developer is working on voice-chat for White Knight Chronicles as well, and also promises cross-region play for when the game is released in North America and Europe.
Stay tuned on PlayStation LifeStyle for all the information on White Knight Chronicles.

as much as i hate to see it delayed, they are adding a TON to the western release and voice chat is huge!!
thanks Level 5
REALLY sucks that this game isn’t coming out this year anymore. Haven’t they had enough time to add whatever features they were going to add? I honestly would rather the game just release, and then get new features through patches. It’s going to happen anyway.
these added features i think though will help sell the game and maybe 2010 lets them release around less games to hopefully bring more profit.
sounds like it will be worth the extra wait.
too bad they pushed it back but with the slew of great games im spending money on this year, it wont be so bad to hold off lol.
man another delay…
Level 5 delivers.
First day buy
BTW there are rumors that Dark Cloud 3 will be announced at TGS this year.
And according to that rumors its diffrent from the previous Dark cloud games
Man, that is a GOOD reason to delay.
yes, sounds like they’re making it better
If they delay too long into Q1, the game will get buried under God of War 3, which would not be good. I don’t want to be in here a year from now reading about this game is “a great but under-appreciated game” like Valkyria Chronicles…
Sweet!
Town building? Remind anyone of Dark Cloud?
Cool, but where are all of the visual goodies!?
