At Namco’s press event yesterday, it contained a bit of mixed news. It was announced that the Level-5 / Studio Ghibli developed Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch is still on course for a North American / European release, but on the not-so-bright side, it was revealed that the PS3 JRPG has been pushed into Q1 of 2013. The game was originally scheduled to release this Winter 2012. The game is still scheduled to simultaneously release in North America and Europe on the same day.
