It’s official: the Wii RPG trifecta is complete in the states. XSEED has just announced Pandora’s Tower localization for North America.

Pandora’s Tower will arrive in the states this spring. XSEED reached an agreement with Nintendo for publishing rights, just as it did for The Last Story.

Wii (and Wii U) owners will now have access to the console’s last three major RPGs from Nintendo. Xenoblade arrived last year, and The Last Story followed a few months after. Pandora’s Tower was the final title waiting to be localized.

Head past the break for the official announcement.



Crash ‘n the Boys: Street Challenge will be hitting the Japanese eShop as a Famicom download on January 23 for 500 yen. Screenshots of the game can be found above.
