White Knight Chronicles hasn't even touched American soil yet, but that's not stopped Sony pumping money into a sequel that's slated to be revealed at the Tokyo Game Show. The Level 5-developed original hit Japanese shelves last Christmas, but won't be coming to the West until next year.
Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu has revealed the game in its TGS exhibitor list, naming Shirokishi Monogatari: Hikari to Yami no Kakusei. The game roughly translates into White Knight Chronicles: Awakening of Light and Darkness. Yeah ... that sounds suitably JRPG.
I briefly played the first game at E3 this year, and it looked hopeful, if very MMO-ish. We'll have to see how it does in the US and Europe first before getting excited for the sequel though.

Your new avatar makes you look waaay too preppy. I demand that you put the old one back!
Good luck fellas.
I wished they would just add subtitles and release the damn game then do a english version through an update for those who want english dub. I think this is BS that the only good RPG for the PS3 this year is still not released.
I think they should release WKC in the US at a reduced price ($40 or $50) to give us some more incentive to care.
