That's right, you heard it here first: Agarest Senki Zero is coming to the SCEE territories, courtesy of Ghostlight.

This time we're working even more closely in conjunction with Idea Factory to ensure we deliver the best possible game to you, the fans. In addition we're kind of co-opting the testing of the game with the SCEA publisher, the highly respected Aksys Games. Not only will this give us the benefit of Aksys' awesome translation skills (yeah, theirs is better, we know!) but we'll also be effectively doubling the test time the game receives and working to ensure that any differences between the US and EU versions of the game are as minimal as possible. Hopefully this means that you - the customer - win, whichever side of the Atlantic you're on. :-)

Currently, plans regarding a release date and EU pricing are not finalised (heck, we've barely even started), but rest assured that we'll be looking to provide you with the ultimate possible version of Agarest SZ to whet your appetites for more vaguely inappropriate Soul Breeding and more double entendres than you can shake a floppy stick at (woops, did it again!).

We're also planning to bring out an oh-so special edition of the game alongside the regular version, so stay tuned for more information on that (and its saucy contents) as and when we have it.

Oh and YES, this time we will be supporting Trophies. ;-)

I hope there's a physical release this time. I still haven't bought the first game because I don't buy digital only games.

I hope they release an XBox 360 version as well. :) I have the original Record of Agarest War on the XBox 360 and I want to have the sequels on it too. :)

Whether it releases on PS3 and/or 360, the version that comes with a physical disk is the one I buy :) I know there were many unhappy people that PS3 was DDL only :(

And yes, a CE of course will be a DEFINATE Day 1 preorder for me too :D

Welp, DDL or Disc for PS3, doesn't matter for me. I'll be buying it either way. DDL preferable or if possible an option between the two. Could care less about the extra stuff since it doesn't change my enjoyment for the game than actually playing it.

I'm hoping it gets a 360 release. Pretty please Aksys?

Why wouldn't Aksys release 360 version in US, I think that's pretty much given.

I support this press release.

Neil Hamburger(Il buono): Why did God send Terri Schiavo to hell? For the sin of sloth.
D.Plainview(Il brutto): I have a competition in me. I want no one else to succeed. I hate most people.
Kakizaki(Il cattivo): [Edit] That's what I do when I feel threatened, because God gave me a baby penis.

Looks like someone spilled the beans before you Aksys. Hope to hear more announcements soon, maybe next time you will be able to give them.

Aksys, please bring Students of The Round for the XBox360 and Elminage 3 for the PSP here. First person dungeon crawling deserves a chance.

Well at the moment it's not even out yet and it's only for the PS3. Though I kinda noticed a patern where after year, Compile makes a 360 port. So chances are that we might be able to see Agarest 2 next year and then another year until it get's localized.

Well some seem to be under the impression that NISA has it. Which I hope isn't try since they are needless to say anti - 360. >_>

I hope not... I'd rather NISA to localize Disgaea 4 and Neptune for next year. Maybe Criminal Girls or Toradora Portable.

I just hope Aksys has Agarest 2. It would be a shame XBox 360 owners to get shafted like that.

>.> I think its a strong possibility that Aksys would do the localization at this point for Agarest 2. I wouldn't want NISA to touch it and they can keep their Neptune localization since its damn near impossible for another company to localize Disgaea 4. Either way I wont be buying another localization from NISA. In terms of localization quality, Aksys > NISA for as long as Aksys does the great work they've been doing so far.

I hope that's the case. If Nisa gets it they'll screw over XBox 360 owners for sure. :(
