Level-5 sneaked out the news that Ni no Kuni would bring its magical, world to North American PS3s in early 2012. Now, in a post rounding up the Level-5 World events, the company’s international office has revealed a European release as well, along with a publisher: Namco Bandai.
In the game, the beauty of Studio Ghibli’s hand-drawn animation has been perfectly reproduced, with the cel-shaded graphics engine producing stunning real-time animations of a quality normally only seen in their industry-leading feature films. In addition, Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch on PlayStation 3 brings a wealth of new content to the Ni no Kuni universe, with an additional cast of mysterious characters to meet, new areas to explore, and a whole different perspective on the involving story.
Namco Bandai also issued its own press release today, in which VP of Marketing Carlson Choi called Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch “one of our premier titles for 2012.”
