Level 5 Working on unannounced PS3 & Wii title

At an event for prospective employees in Tokyo, Level 5 president Akihiro Hino revealed that his company was working on two previously unannounced projects for PlayStation 3 and Wii.

TheHater5188d ago

That has already been announce and it expected to release this year in Japan. Hopefully they don't take a year+ to release it in the States this time. I really hope it is release in Spring of Next year outside of Japan.

zeeshan5188d ago

IMHO Level 5 => SE. So this is great news!

hay5188d ago

I'd piss my pants if it was The Another World for PS3.

Chris3995188d ago

As long as it sells enough in NA that shouldn't be the case. And for the love of God, localize and release the game in a more timely manner. I've stated this before, but WKC would have been more favorably reviewed if it wasn't wedged between Mass Effect 2 and Final Fantasy XIII. Last year during the summer drought would have been an ideal window.

Hisiru5188d ago

If it's Level 5 you know that we will have a good game.

gaffyh5188d ago

If this is Jeanne D'Arc 2 I'd be ecstatic. The first one was by far the best handheld game I've played.

Fox015188d ago

Lets hope it's as good as White Knight Chronicles.

Fox015188d ago (Edited 5188d ago )

"IMHO Level 5 => SE."

Not this again...

Can you tell us why?

xTruthx5188d ago

Have been enjoying WKC with my friends lately, there r room from improvements in the game but I'm enjoying it a lot so far. Don't see how it got so bad reviews tho.

The Great Melon5188d ago

@gaffyh

I don't think we'll see another Jeanne D'Arc considering the story; however, I would love for them to produce another srpg in the style of Jeanne D'Arc. There is plenty of history out there that you can embellish with mythical creatures, magic, and anime. Jeanne D'Arc was my first srpg and I have been trying to find another game that will meet my high expectations in the genre.

SL1M DADDY5188d ago

It was given bad reviews because most of the reviews were done by those that spent only a couple hours in the single player game and never really examined the online portion of the title. In the end, the game is more for the online and less about playing off line.

tetsuhana5188d ago

Because SE hasn't made a good game since 2001.

KozmoOchez5188d ago

play final fantasy tactics, as it is better than Jeanne D' Arc IMO...just doesnt look as good. The battle system is pretty much the same exact thing except they are random and you have a chance for rare battles

gaffyh5188d ago

@1.9 - Yeah, that's the only problem, I'm sure they could make up a story if they wanted to though :)

@1.12 - I hate SRPGs (tried Disgaea and FF Tactics), Jeanne D'Arc is the only one I actually liked, and not only liked, but I think it is one of the best PSP games (top 5) I've played.

Noctis Aftermath5188d ago

@gaffyh: you tried Valkyria Chronicles on ps3? it's a great SRPG.

CimmerianDrake5188d ago

Dark Cloud 3. Pure and simple. Either that, or Rogue Galaxy 2.

TotalPS3Fanboy5187d ago

the next game in Sony's Play-Create-Share genre.

Play the game, Create towns, characters, monsters, items, missions, and Share them online.

A next gen create-your-own-rpg game.

Dark Cloud 3,plz!! and make it as great as DC2 :D

prettyboy15188d ago

right dark cloud was 1 of my favorite rpgs of all time a next gen game would be more then welcomed to rpg lovers every where

TooTall195188d ago

Dark Cloud 3 would easily be my most anticipated game. The first 2 are my favorite RPGs, and online Co-op would make the levels to collect georama even better!

AKS5188d ago

You read my mind. I'd love for one of the projects to be Dark Cloud 3.

-Alpha5188d ago

By far one of the BEST RPG's I've played. Dark Cloud NEEDS TO COME TO THE PS3!

Come on Level 5, it's leagues ahead of WKC!

danm you sony stop make flop games.

Karooo5188d ago

TheHater5188d ago

another flop incoming flop comment.

danm you ps3hasonlyflopgames stop make flop comments.

Karooo5188d ago

ps3 games have been winning goty awards and best graphics and this guy makes a really idiotic username, ps3hasonlyflopgames yeah right.

level of trolling has really dropped nowadays.

N4PS3G5188d ago

@Kartik

Since when is 1 year and 2 months = 2 year old game? Go back to school

Get over it...the game could have been new and it still would have sucked..even the old imported reviews were bad

Razgriz5188d ago

According to metacritic and gamerankings no JRPG on X360 passed 80% mark anyway lol. Biggest flops are LR, IU and MC2. And PS3 got Disgaea 3, Valkyria Chronicles and Demon's Souls. Think harder, man.

Bodyboarder_VGamer5188d ago (Edited 5188d ago )

No matter how hard these guys try at the end they always get owned.

Sigh5188d ago (Edited 5188d ago )

Since when is a 5 month old developed game like the flop that is Halo:OSTD a brand new game? It's halo 3 reskinned.

hatchimatchi5187d ago

I wouldn't consider it a flop until we see the sales figures. Besides, I bought the game and I'm absolutely loving it. I couldn't care less what reviewers say is and isn't good. All I can hope is that WKC sells enough in NA to warrant the sequel being released here. WKC has an audience, is it a big one? I'm not sure, the online community has been great so far though.

Besides, WKC is a jrpg game. It seems like nowadays reviewers are on a witch hunt when it comes to the jrpg genre. The majority of the jrpg fanbase is happy with age old game mechanics, most of us don't want drastic changes to the battle systems and the way the maps are laid out. It worked on the nes/snes and it still works on the ps3/360 it's just that non jrpg fans are reviewing these games and are bashing them because they prefer WRPG games and in most cases hate level grinding. I personally love level grinding, I find it to be extremely rewarding.

To each his own.

labwarrior5188d ago

I must see more and in fact scores first

devilhunterx5188d ago

Have you ever played any other game other than Fable 1 and 2?

Bodyboarder_VGamer5188d ago (Edited 5188d ago )

This must be a joke. Seriously, I thought you were dead!

Labwarrior, the legendary troll! He's the only one that could top Nas!m from back in the day. That if really is him and not some noob using his name though... This guys it's so incredible that he kept trolling the first WKC stream in justintv in 2008 for an entire day. That's how devoted he is, so, don't take him that seriously. He have been banned from so many websites that he couldn't do any other thing that come to the PS3's Outer Heaven! aka N4G. =D

Ether5188d ago

Give me Dark Cloud 3, and I shall be complete.

I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now

Furesis11h ago

I would say it does. The combat is a bit shit for todays standards but everything else is great.

anast9h ago

It's worth a play through today.

gold_drake2h ago

the first one is abit the odd one out but after u finished it, believe it it gets tremendously better and better

El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron - Coming Back for a New Generation

Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.

jznrpg1d 5h ago

Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.

darthv721d 5h ago

Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.

Fallout 3's Reveal Led To Death Threats And Bethesda's First Security Guard

The artist behind Fallout 4’s Deathclaw reveals just how bad things got back when Bethesda took over the series

anast1d 7h ago

People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,

But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.

LucasRuinedChildhood1d 6h ago

As much as Bethesda deserve criticism, that's not really relevant to the reveal of Fallout 3 in 2007.

VenomUK1d 4h ago

The default angle Kotaku always go for is to highlight the worst in gaming.

I would’ve focused on the creative.

anast9h ago

The game went downhill at Fallout 3's release. This is when they started to cut corners.

gold_drake1d 2h ago

there is no "but". the hell lol
you dont send death threats, period.

anast9h ago

Usually, you have good comments but this isn't one of them. It just rides the mob. We can do both condemn the actions and not let them use it for other things.

I can say I received a death threat and everyone needs to shut up. People are not honest and will use horrible things to their advantage.

Armaggedon22h ago

Not all games “look” current.

anast9h ago

Their games always look like the gen before it.

Armaggedon29m ago

Yeah, but thats not the result of laziness, incompetence, or a bad engine. Thats what happens with their type of open world games. Its hard for people to find a point of comparison because no one makes games like Bethesda does.

gold_drake3h ago

mh ok thanks, i still think ur wrong in this mate.

anast2h ago

No problem. I'm not here to convince you. I'm only stating an actuality. What your words do if we look at them like events.
