D3 Publisher Shipping White Knight Chronicles 2 in North America this Summer

White Knight Chronicles is getting a sequel in North America, but it won't be coming as a Sony published title.  Instead D3 Publisher, who recently published God Eater Burst and the upcoming Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon, will be handling the publishing duties of White Knight Chronicles 2.  

The package will actually contain both the original and sequel together, and while the Japanese release made it a requirement to have played (and finished) the original White Knight Chronicles, the North American release will have an option to allow you to skip this.  The reason behind this is the way the game implements and imports your previous game's characters.

White Knight Chronicles 2 will feature co-op gameplay again, though the details are a bit scarce.  We do know that players can create a custom character to play online now, but the number of players supported in online quests haven't been announced.  The official press material says the game will "seamlessly blends the interactive multiplayer co-op experience with the cinematic storytelling of a single-player RPG."  Sounds ambitious.

Oooh, I like the bundle of the first game. I was interested in it, but not at the price tag it was at. But getting both the first game and its sequel, probably for about $60? That could be worth it. Will need more details, of course, but that's got me interested to say the least!

I just got the first at a 2get1 sale at gamestop over the weekend. the battle system seems really really slow, and saving takes like 45 seconds, which is quite long for as often as I like to save. I haven't tried the co-op but if they brought it to the main game I'd be way more interested.
