Andriasang: White Knight Chronicles set for PSP. The latest magazine news leaks in one convenient location.
It looks like Level-5, developer of the PS3 White Knight games (also known for the Layton series), won't be leading the series on that new start.
Famitsu lists Sony Computer Entertainment Japan as "producer" of the new game, with Level-5 credited only for the original idea of the White Knight series.
This seems to suggest that the new game will have a yet undisclosed mystery developer.
Well the IP belongs to Sony and considering WKC2 ends the main story, its understandable that Sony has gotten another developer to do the spin off series while Level 5 continue their other Wii/ DS/ PS3/ PSP projects.
On top of this, Level 5 do have 2 PSP titles in development (announced a year ago at least) so I highly doubt their team could take on another PSP project in relation to their other titles in development.
Pity, but hopefully this other dev will do a good job.
Side story, but Level 5 will probably get some of the money that is generated out of it. Or Level 5 might be busy with their projects so they gave SCEJ the job. Level 5 and Sony have a close relationship, they're neighbors afterall.
Sony Japan Studios is more than up to the task. They developed Patapon, LocoRoco and codeveloped Demons Souls.
Didnt get a chance to play it for PS3, but I'll definitely get in on it if it comes stateside.
Well that is certainly interesting
Nice. More support for the PSP.
A White Knight game for the PSP is great. I hope Level-5 makes next Dark Cloud 3 for the PS3 & a spin-off version for the PSP too.
Awesome. They had better put more quests at the beginning of the game. I dont actually care for the story. The combat and the enemies is what i love about this game. I actually stopped playing MAG for a while.
I hope it's not a full port but instead a better version of WKC. I want more guild quests for low ranks and high ranks. I hope there's infrastructure and hopefully the implement letting our avatar be their own knight in the game.
New Yakuza games... AWESOME! Keep 'em coming and i'll keep buying as long as they stay awesome and kickass!
