Im pretty sure this will come out in the west. Other compile heart game (agarest, cross edge) with far lower budget and less appeal to western public (2D sprite instead of 3D and static image to tell story) have been released here already. On another note, combat, art style and premise looks awesome. Though, I still have some doubt knowing it comes from compile heart, I wish you have maps to explore without a redundant gameplay. I guess being exclusive will serves them better, JRPG back to PS2 era.

so who wants to take over my "White Heart" avatar?

my tale as a Wii is over , my tail is pink now

it says the summon characters can be changed with your XMB photos, so if you havea  photo of masterchief there then you can use him
