Now that Level-5′s mmorpg, White Knight Chronicles 2, is finally getting released outside of Japan this May, here’s a quick rundown of some of the improvements and changes the game has over it’s predecessor.
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."
Ni no Kuni 2 imo is the bottom of my list for top Level 5 games.
Dark Cloud 1/2
Dragon Quest VIII
Rogue Galaxy,
White Knight Chronicles
Ni no Kuni
Pro Layton series
Gameplane: "Many games can astonish players with creative gameplay or emotional stories. Others are remarkable due to the fun we had with them, while some are simply beautiful. These are nine JRPGs, which made us fall in love with virtual places."
On November 26th Sony Japan will host a livestream on Nico Nico focusing on White Knight Chronicles II.
The livestream will be hosted by Producer Kentaro Motomura and Promoter Yasuhiro Kitao, and will come with an exceptional guest: Level-5 President Akihiro Hino.
This is turning out to be Sony's very own E3 show for the holidays!
Merry Christmas!

Most likely, yes. WKC was a PS3 exclusive.
i hope for a localized Yokai Watch for Vita it seems very interesting and 3 milion Japan consumers are not idiots that bought the game instantly
@pedro
WKC2 came out on PS3 as well.
The servers for both games are down now unf. I really wish we see a HD collection of the game. It was one of my most memorable gaming experience from last gen.
I had about 1000 hours into WKC, and 600 hours when they took the servers down in WKC2.
I had these games in a backlog for a while, I was very sad to learn that one of the biggest draws to me (MP/online component) had been cancelled.
Fun games, but you need to be careful of how long they expect to support their titles, it seems....not...long.
Yeah, Im lucky cuz got the platinum of both WKC before that (too many hours lol )
@jspsc123
Im with you bro ! MAG!
I would take a White Knight Collection for the PS4 and a new game from Level 5 in the chute. As long as they keep servers up for awhile. I think they prematurely shut down servers for WKC on PS3. I know everyone is gonna be crying "Dark Cloud", but I'd prefer a new IP... WKC was originally supposed to be a trilogy, so there is no telling.
I understand why they shut off WKC, but I was still playing WKC2 weekly when they shut of fWKC2.
I'm hoping we do see a PS4 HD collection.
These games didn't get high ratings but for some reason I always found the series intriguing? And both games sold well. Maybe they'll make a new game in the series with an updated part 1 and 2
I still have my copy of WKC2. One of the most frustrating games I have ever played. Great though.
White Knight Chronicles was not the best game and got ripped apart by the critics.
Level-5 should make a sequel to the excellent Rogue Galaxy game for PS2. I loved that game!
Wow people disagreed with that statement.
Man I miss rogue galaxy :-(. It was such a amazing games, all those fantastic characters. I loved all my time with it.
It didn't help that it was one of the first high-prifile bullshot games last gen.
And what was weird about it was not only were those pre-release visuals much better than the final game, so was the UI and combat. And then there was all the DLC-whoring--like charging players to edit their avatars.
Can't wait for WKC2 :D
Already knew most of the stuff here.
But still, gets me excited for the game reading about the stuff :D
