Level 5 Has "Shocking Announcements" Coming Next Week

White Knight Chronicles

Much to every RPG fan's delight, it was revealed yesterday that White Knight Chronicles would release on December 25 in Japan. We're waiting for any news of a North American and/or European release date, but perhaps that information isn't far off...

According to Gamekyo, Level 5 has revealed in the latest edition of Famitsu magazine that they're planning a major press conference for next week. Called "Level 5 Vision 2008," it's going to take place on September 26, and there's one statement from the developer: "A game revolution is beginning [] Wait for shocking announcements from Level-5!" Okay, that's probably standard melodrama, and we have a bad feeling these "shocking announcements" probably revolve around Nintendo platforms, but we'll stay hopeful for now. Most likely, this is when WKC will get officially unveiled and announced for the holidays, and if we're lucky, they'll give us a release date for other regions as well. Then again, perhaps they'll also talk about something entirely new; something the media isn't aware of just yet...any ideas? A whole new RPG for the PSP? And instead of bringing DQ back to the DS again, how about making Dragon Quest X for the PS3? A whole lot of people adored DQVIII on the PS2, you know...

Either way, we'll be on the sharp lookout for Level 5 news on September 26, and we're crossing our fingers for positive developments. Is anyone else starting to think teams like Level 5 and Atlus will serve PS3 owners the way Squaresoft and Square-Enix has served Sony fans in the past?
