White Knight Chronicles 2 is due out in Japan in a mere few months, and the hype machine is ramping up with the release of lots of information about the game, including over 70 new shots of the sequel in action.
Subtitled Awakening of Light and Darkness, White Knight Chronicles 2 picks up right where the first game left off and expands the world and story outlined in the original title.
Grab your longsword, shield and round up the fantasy archetypes - there are Ice Dragons afoot!
Gameplane: "Many games can astonish players with creative gameplay or emotional stories. Others are remarkable due to the fun we had with them, while some are simply beautiful. These are nine JRPGs, which made us fall in love with virtual places."

I am kicking things off by going back to a familiar well here - with a song from the Neverwinter Nights soundtrack. This is still arguably one of my favorite music scores in a video game ever, but I decided to lead off with it and then create something of a theme as I decided to pull all of this edition's songs from RPG games.
Neverwinter Nights (PC) - Battle - Forest Boss
I touched on the somewhat mystical quality of another Neverwinter Nights song last week when discussing City Docks Day. There were a lot of really good battle tunes in this one, but the Forest Boss song always stood out in my mind. The battle itself was not even the most memorable one, but right around the one minute mark, it reaches an epic level that just stuck with me.
Awesome, hopefully this can build upon the first =]
Looks a lot better than the first
I really have high hopes for this, wasn't a fan of the first, but hopefully they can correct the mistakes
I hope it will do well, but it will probably be the same as part one, only successful in Japan.
Funny as all the action happens a year later and still, Leonard is wearing the very same cloths! This guy needs to go out more and do some shoping! =]
Anyway, just finished the first one and I'm far from done with it - so I'm very excited for this sequel! Hope they can improve the online gaming and its quests.
By the way, I really really hope they can bring it to the west a lot faster this time around. If it gets here only a year later than it's release in Japan, I might be too addicted in FFXIV to even care anymore.
