Level-5’s mmorpg White Knight Chronicles: Awakening of Light and Darkness was released on Thursday in Japan and the game already has taken the top spot. Early reports are indicating that first day sales of WKC 2 sit at 107k units sold.
Level-5 will be hosting the second Vision 2023 event this year on November 29 at 21:00 JST.
Quite prolific, looking at the anticipated lineup. Decapolice has been on my radar.
For the love of God, Dark Cloud 3 before I shuffle off the mortal coil, please
Level-5, the studio behind the Ni No Kuni and Yo-Kai Watch franchises, stopped operating outside of Japan as their North American business closed as it scaled back in late 2020.
Level 5's business model is to make a hit TV show and then milk it.
Nice when it works, but not so good when they can't make a hit TV show.
Awesome news! Level 5 made so many great games: Dark Cloud 1 & 2, Rogue Galaxy, Dragon Quest VIII, Ni No Kuni, etc. I can't wait to see what games they make next.
Jacob S. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "While we here at Link Cable Gaming are holding hope that these claims aren’t to be true, we thought that now would be the perfect time to look over the company’s work and take a moment to see which ten Level-5 games best celebrate the company as a whole."
Woot. Great news.

It's on the article.
Let's hope it gets shipped out to other countries soon!
Good to see it did well.
That's great although i'm STILL disappointed they didn't manage to match the gameplay of the game to the first trailer they showed a few years ago and the sequel doesn't seem to match it either. I think that sort of gameplay is possible if they put the effort needed.
I hope Level-5 steps up their game and outdo themselves in the future.
I'm still buying the game to support JRPG devs.
Didn't know this was out. Reviews look decent so i may get the second one.
Hopefully it does not take more than a year to ship in the west this time. I really liked the first one, and the online mode is great, no matter what the trolls claim.
