Xenoblade developers working on 3DS project photo

Monolith Soft, the studio behind sci-fi fantasy Wii title Xenoblade Chronicles, appears to be working on a new game for 3DS. The studio has opened a recruitment page seeking staff to work out of its new Kyoto location, specifically effect designers for map and battle scenes, motion designers for monsters and characters, and 3D CG designers for character and 3D map modeling.

So, the Xenoblade developers are looking for a team who can do motion for monsters and battle scenes on the 3DS? I think that's enough confetti to start a speculation party.

Oh, this sounds like great news.

... Though I hope we don't have two wait two years and sign a hundred petitions for NoA to release their new game in the West.

I'll get excited when NoA stops sucking. Until then, I figure it's not worth it to get excited for something that has maybe a 50% chance at best of ever showing up in the West.

They had released an illustration done by the Baten Kaitos artist for an unannounced RPG project. It's may be another Baten Kaitos.

Were getting XenoBlade in April, so get over it already, and stop being so butt-hurt over it!

I imported Xenoblade shortly before it was announced for the US. One of my favorite games of all time. I can not wait for this 3ds title because I'm sure whatever they do will end up being amazing.

Well here we go again. Right when we get Xenoblade and The Last Story here in States. Let's call this one No Game Left Behind.

I love Monolith, but this disappoints me (despite the fact that I own a 3DS).

I've been waiting since 2006 to see a JRPG on the level of Xenoblade with current-gen visuals, and was hoping that Monolith would have already started development on a Wii U title by now.
