Grand Knights History Will Make Its Grand Debut Outside Japan This Winter

Congratulations to everyone who guessed Xseed’s tease yesterday was for Grand Knights History on PSP. You were right! Xseed will be publishing the Vanillaware game “this winter” both as a retail UMD game and on PlayStation Network. Meanwhile, Rising Star Games will publish it in Europe. Here’s one of the recent Japanese trailers:

Grand Knights History takes place in Listia, a European-inspired continent, and is about a war between the lands of Union, Avalon and Logres. You have to align yourself with one of the three factions and can can create different kinds of characters for your party in the game.

Each character class comes in three varieties, each with their own differences. Race, gender, sub-class and weapon type are customizable as well. Xseed mention that the game’s online battle mode will be present in the localized release as well, and that you won’t require a constant Internet connection to use it.

I saw the trailer before and I like it. I wasn't expecting this, but more importantly, Xseed is doing another fine job in securing JRPGs left and right.

500 people are really happy right now!

Thank you again Xseed
I hoping they pick up "Tale of the Last Promise" too.

That music and graphics o_o
I might give this a try, make my PSP go out with a bang! I'll definitively keep my eyes open for this.

Great news :D

This winter? Uhuh, aside from a Wii and Xenoblade, I thought I was done for the year... apparently not... okay, those and WKC2...

also, with each game, Vanillaware seems to hone their art further... what's the gameplay about, though? I know that you posted bits on customizeability, but is there more info out there?

looks awsume
