Namco Bandai has confirmed that Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch is headed to North America in Winter 2012. The game will include both English and Japanese voiceover tracks and will be released exclusively for the PlayStation 3.
Ni no Kuni is developed by Level-5, who previously worked on the Professor Layton series and Dragon Quest IX. It features art by famed animation company Studio Ghibli and music by composer Joe Hisaishi.
According to Namco Bandai, Ni No Kuni is "a heart-warming tale of a young boy named Oliver, who embarks on a journey into a parallel world to become a magician in an attempt to bring his mother back from the dead. Along the way Oliver makes new friends and adopts many of the wonderful creatures that inhabit the world, raising them to battle other creatures on his behalf as he takes on formidable enemies."
"Our top priority for the Western release of Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch is to localize the game with the same level of quality and attention to detail that fans of LEVEL-5 and Studio Ghibli have come to expect," said Level-5 president and CEO Akihiro Hino.
Ni no Kuni hit Japanese stores in November and its international release quickly became one of our most anticipated games of 2012.
