In a video interview (below) CEO and president Level-5, Akihiro Hino, has confirmed that RPG White Knight Chronicles wil get a North American release.

However, when quizzed on whether US gamers would be able to share online components with Japanese ones he simply stated that it “hasn’t been decided yet”.

White Knight Chronicles was released on Christmas Day in Japan off the back of a 29/40 score from Famitsu, and although a Western release was always likely, PS3F says this is the first official confirmation that it’s definitely coming.

Would you ever want to play with Japanese gamers anyway?

Woah, Hino is really effeminate sounding.

It’s a white knight, silly. In a white room. Whitewashing a whiteboard.
