White Knight Chronicles: Awakening of Light and Darkness (a.k.a. White Knight Chronicles 2) has been revealed to take place right after the events of the first game.

In it, Leonard and his allies see that the City of Greed, the Kingdom of Barandel, and the Magic Republic of Foria are in big trouble.

Also, according to Joystiq, you’ll create another avatar to join Leonard and be able to transform, explore new areas, battle more monsters, and new equipment and skills will be added as well.

There’s also feature a new female knight, and you’re able to have six characters in your party.

Still no word on when this will hit Japan, but until it does, both Joystiq and IGN have some pretty pictures of it.

Decent quality shakycam footage of the White Knight Chronicles: Awakening of Light and Darkness trailer debuted at TGS yesterday’s after the break, thanks to Siliconera.

It’s all looking a bit Final Fantasy, but there’s some awesome CG going on there. Great turtle monster thing.

No date. PS3-only.

Famitsu has reported that a White Knight Chronicles sequel is currently in development, and will be revealed at TGS 09 this week.

The mag’s exhibitor preview lists Shirokishi Monogatari: Hikari to Yami no Kakusei which, according to Siliconera, translates into White Knight Chronicles: Awakening of Light and Darkness.

The first White Knight Chronicles has yet to leave Japan and make its way elsewhere, but that’s the way things tend to go with Japanese releases.

Later this year, Sony’s releasing White Knight Chronicles EX in Japan, which is a discounted re-release that includes all of the online patches. This is the version of the game the West is to get with English text and possibly voice chat during the early part of next year.

Coolio.
