[Danielsan]

Ooh god. Yes, yes YES!

 

[BeeDog]

What about us Eurotrash then?

 

[AniHawk]

thought we'd never see this. pretty cool.

 

[hiro4]

What about us Eurotrash then?

Hopefully it will be region free, so we can import it.

 

[Nirolak]

This is surprising, especially this quickly.

 

[Dascu]

Oh, so early already? Good to hear.

 

[Negator]

Woah. I actually never expected this to happen. Very nice.

 

[Danielsan]

Hopefully it will be region free, so we can import it.

All PS3 games are region free. So I don't give a flying fuck if this is coming to the PAL region. I'll be importing it from NA anyway.

 

[Dark Schala]

YES. Can't wait to witness the splendor on my TV. Thank you, Level-5!

Also: "DLC also in the works". Mmm?

 

[hawt]

YESSSSSSSSS!



I'm gonna get my hopes up and say that it'll be here before the end of January.

 

[electroplankton]

What about DS version?

 

[BeeDog]

Hopefully it will be region free, so we can import it.

I don't mind importing it if I have to, but I'd rather have an European version to overcome DLC issues.

 

[hsukardi]

Good news.

 

[Kyon]

already importing the Gold PS3 ;____;

 

[Toki767]

I really wasn't expecting this but I definitely will buy.

 

[Trevelyon]

Tears of joy!

 

[weeaboo]

THERE IS A GOD

 

[Danielsan]

What about DS version?

What about it?

 

[Ushojax]

Cool, hopefully it comes to Europe as well. I am a bit sad about the DS version, though.

 

[Kyoufu]

Nice! The only thing left for Level 5 is to make the game play as good as it looks.

So FFXIII-2, Tales of Graces F and Ninokuni in early 2012. Year of the JRPG!

 

[Psymon_Stark]

add "PS3 Version" to the title, I was a little confused until I clciked on the article

 

[Amir0x]

now that's some good news

 

[jj984jj]

Wow, Level 5 is on top of things with the release of this game. Definitely will get.

 

[Kalamoj]

Godly. Day 1.

 

[Xater]

I don't mind importing it if I have to, but I'd rather have an European version to overcome DLC issues.

Yeah, it would be nice to not buy US points cards.

Will still import if no Euro releas eis in sight.

 

[Kenshin001]

The game will also be launched in Asian markets in Japanese.

I understand the kanji are the same or similar often but can Chinese speakers read hiragana or katakana? Wouldn't English be a better choice, as English is widely spoken in places like HK and Singapore?

 

[electroplankton]

What about it?

There exists a DS version and I'm more interested about it.

 

[Qwomo]

Hooray!

 

[Varth]

Unexpected, and welcome.

/dance

 

[Lafiel]

Still skeptical about the quality of the title (since it's level 5) but I'm such a ghibli whore that I'll probably buy this asap.

 

[JaCy]

Day 1! but no word on the DS version? I wanted and would buy both.

 

[Auto_aim1]

Ooh, very good news.

 

[Majmun]

YEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Definitely importing.

 

[Soma]

Oh my god yes! Awesome news!

 

[Acquiescence]

That's the siren call for me to import then. I'm sure as hell not waiting a few extra months for it to come out here in the UK. TeamAxel here I come!

Fantastic news, though there was never really a doubt in my mind it would make it's way to the West. Ghibli has a lot of pull with us round-eyes because of what John Lasseter started with Spirited Away.

 

[Nuclear Muffin]

Wait, what about the DS game!? How the hell can they release the PS3 game but ignore the DS game? The story won't even make sense! (For those wondering, the PS3 game is a sequel to the DS one)

 

[gembel]

this is the best news out of TGS!

 

[marcurius]

I don't get why so many people were doubting this would hit the west. Every Level 5 game on a Sony platform has made it here as far as I'm aware (bar Little Battlers), not to mention they apparently have started an american office as well.

 

[Feep]

Worddddddd

 

[darkwing]

this is the real megaton

 

[Ratrat]

I understand the kanji are the same or similar often but can Chinese speakers read hiragana or katakana? Wouldn't English be a better choice, as English is widely spoken in places like HK and Singapore?

Arent asian versions usually in english? They have been in my experience.

 

[Xater]

I don't get why so many people were doubting this would hit the west. Every Level 5 game on a Sony platform has made it here as far as I'm aware (bar Little Battlers), not to mention they apparently have started an american office as well.

Then you are not very aware of Level 5 titles.

It's also nut just that it is release din the west, but that is coming out so soon.

 

[gembel]

Arent asian versions usually in english? They have been in my experience.

they release asia version of the japanese version the same time as the japanese version, later on release asia version of the english version.

 

[The Praiseworthy]

Early 2012?

Wow.... This is really shocking :O

Can't believe that this is coming to NA.... and THIS SOON!!

 

[jj984jj]

I don't get why so many people were doubting this would hit the west. Every Level 5 game on a Sony platform has made it here as far as I'm aware (bar Little Battlers), not to mention they apparently have started an american office as well.

I think most expected it (since it even has Ghibli), but not this soon.

 

[Nirolak]

Wait, what about the DS game!? How the hell can they release the PS3 game but ignore the DS game? The story won't even make sense! (For those wondering, the PS3 game is a sequel to the DS one)

Actually, the games start at the same place.

During the Sony Computer Entertainment Asia press conference on September 16 held near Tokyo Game Show 2011's venue, Level-5 president Akihiro Hino mentioned during an interview panel that an English version of the game is in production right now as well as announced the above release window of the title. This PS3 version of the game starts off the same as the DS version, but the story is told differently after the game's midpoint. According to Hino, the PS3 will have additional story content that will pick off where the DS version ended.

 

[gembel]

NOW.. the question is, will the Japanese voice be included!!?? let's all demand this from Level5

 

[MiloFoxburr]

Awesome, will import if they don't release in Europe.

 

[Tailzo]

YES! Best TGS news!
