On November 26th Sony Japan will host a livestream on Nico Nico focusing on White Knight Chronicles II.
The livestream will be hosted by Producer Kentaro Motomura and Promoter Yasuhiro Kitao, and will come with an exceptional guest: Level-5 President Akihiro Hino.
Level-5 will be hosting the second Vision 2023 event this year on November 29 at 21:00 JST.
Quite prolific, looking at the anticipated lineup. Decapolice has been on my radar.
For the love of God, Dark Cloud 3 before I shuffle off the mortal coil, please
Level-5, the studio behind the Ni No Kuni and Yo-Kai Watch franchises, stopped operating outside of Japan as their North American business closed as it scaled back in late 2020.
Level 5's business model is to make a hit TV show and then milk it.
Nice when it works, but not so good when they can't make a hit TV show.
Awesome news! Level 5 made so many great games: Dark Cloud 1 & 2, Rogue Galaxy, Dragon Quest VIII, Ni No Kuni, etc. I can't wait to see what games they make next.
Jacob S. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "While we here at Link Cable Gaming are holding hope that these claims aren’t to be true, we thought that now would be the perfect time to look over the company’s work and take a moment to see which ten Level-5 games best celebrate the company as a whole."
Very interesting
I would take a White Knight Collection for the PS4 and a new game from Level 5 in the chute. As long as they keep servers up for awhile. I think they prematurely shut down servers for WKC on PS3. I know everyone is gonna be crying "Dark Cloud", but I'd prefer a new IP... WKC was originally supposed to be a trilogy, so there is no telling.
These games didn't get high ratings but for some reason I always found the series intriguing? And both games sold well. Maybe they'll make a new game in the series with an updated part 1 and 2
I still have my copy of WKC2. One of the most frustrating games I have ever played. Great though.
White Knight Chronicles was not the best game and got ripped apart by the critics.
Level-5 should make a sequel to the excellent Rogue Galaxy game for PS2. I loved that game!
