Following the original leak a few days ago, Bandai Namco has officially announced Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch for Switch. The RPG will launch on September 20.
As previously mentioned, Ni no Kuni for Switch will be more along the lines of a port from the PlayStation 3 version. Other platforms will be receiving a “Remastered” version with improved resolution and performance. The Switch version will run at 720p and 30 frames per second.
Here’s an overview of Ni no Kuni, along with a trailer:
Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch on Nintendo Switch is the first handheld iteration of the acclaimed title, letting Switch players experience the game in 720p resolution at 30 frames per second in TV mode at home, or in handheld mode on-the-go. The game retains its original dynamic fight system, combining real-time action and turn-based tactical elements, as well as the dozens of locations and hundreds of creatures that comprise the vast universe of Ni no Kuni.
Originally developed by Level-5, Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch’s story unfolds through animation storyboarded and created by the legendary Studio Ghibli, with music composed by award-winning musician Joe Hisaishi. Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch tells the charming yet tragic story of Oliver, a young boy who embarks on a journey to another world in the hope of bringing back his mother following a tragic incident. With a copy of the Wizard’s Companion in hand and his pal Drippy by his side, Oliver must traverse exotic lands to tame familiars, take on malevolent foes, and overcome the countless challenges that stand between him and his mother’s salvation.
