A demo of Namco Bandai’s rather smashing RPG, Eternal Sonata, is now available to down from the Japanese PSN.

If its anything like the 360 demo’s of both Tales of Vesperia and Trusty Bell that appeared on the Japanese Marketplace before it came west, then the language will be region-specific, meaning we should be able to play in English.

We’re downloading all 622Mb of it now and will let you know. Eternal Sonata’s out on October 21 in the US. No European date as yet.

Update: There is no language support for the demo

Kotaku’s running an image from a Namco newsletter putting the official American release date for the PS3 version of Eternal Sonata at October 21.

The western release of the RPG’s new version has been the subject of some debate this year, with Namco claiming the game would never get out of Japan at one point.

RPGamer is reporting that tri-Crescendo’s rather superb JRPG, Eternal Sonata is set for release for PlayStation 3 in the US this “fall”.

Videogaming247 was told just over a month ago, and to much upset, that the game would only be released in Japan.

Well, it seems Namco Bandai heard your cries.

Lordy. Despite Namco America’s assertion that the PS3 version of Eternal Sonata would only be launched in Japan, Sony’s listed the game on a UK roster of titles compatible with DualShock 3.

Fanboy heaven. See for yourself through the link.

Some screens on IGN of the PS3 version of Eternal Sonata. The game that isn’t going to make it out of Japan. Don’t tell anyone that, though. You’ll be branded a “h8tor”.

Have a look.

According to this RPGFan report, RPG Eternal Sonata will release for PS3 in Japan in mid-September.

As previously reported, the version is thought to be a Japan-only affair, much to the dismay of PS3 JRPG fans in the US.

Namco Bandai US has told videogaming247 that as far as it’s aware, the PS3 version of tri-Crescendo’s JRPG Eternal Sonata won’t make it out of Japan.

“I can’t speak for any other territories, but I believe Eternal Sonata is only announced for the PS3 in Japan right now,” said the spokesperson.

“We have no plans to release the game on the PS3 in the US at this moment.”

We reported earlier that there was “no news” as far as this title is concerned. Well, now there is some.

Speaking with videogaming247 today, Atari has said that there are still no details on the PS3 version of tri-Crescendo RPG Eternal Sonata.

“No news as yet on this. As soon as we have any I’ll let you know,” said a spokesperson.

Eternal Sonata was confirmed in September last year for PS3, the new SKU supposedly including all the 360 DLC plus two new playable characters.

Many PS3 screenshots followed, the game being touted for a spring 2008 release.

Since then both the official site and the Namco Bandai game site have given no further details, with the latter showing a PlayStation logo at the bottom of the page being the only clue to the version’s existence.

More soon. Maybe.
