DS RPG Radiant Historia is Bound for North America

By Mark


If you enjoy RPG's from the land of the rising sun you'll know that generally the wait we have between the original Japanese release and the North American/European one can be anywhere up to 6 months later. It's painful yes but Atlus have cut that gap down considerably for their original DS RPG title Radiant Historia.

It only launched this month in Japan and is bound for North America in February, not bad eh? Although there doesn't seem to be word of a European release which is a bummer, but there's still hope. Anyhow, what's this game about I hear a small amount of you ask. Well. It's about a fellow called "Special Intelligence Agent Stocke" who uses a magical book to alter the course of historical events both backwards and forwards in time. In terms of gameplay it plays on a grid with an emphasis of strategy and combo building.

As with alot of Atlus' releases these days they are offering additional content upon launch as well, the spoils this time around being a soundtrack disc that contains the piano arrangements by composer Yoko Shimomura. Here's a trailer for you to pass a couple of minutes with, enjoy.
