Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch (Switch) / Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch Remastered (PS4 and PC)

There are separate pages for these titles, and both are listed for “Fall 2019.” Only the Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch defines Switch as the platform, while Remastered does not define platforms. ResetEra claims the Remastered release is for PlayStation 4 and PC, but we did not find any such confirmation. The following description comes from the Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch page, as the Remastered page does not contain a description.

Update 8:22 p.m.: A screenshot of the Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch Remastered page reveals the platforms to be PlayStation 4 and PC. The Remastered version features “improved graphics and performance on PS4 and PC.”

yo fuckin everything is leaking now, just a day and a half basically before the actual conferences

now i'm really worried about tomorrow, I want there to still be some surprises left for Sunday lmao



I made a post a while back about how cool it would be for Ni No Kuni to come to Switch...heh heh...

But yes, this is amazing. Switch JRPG fans, please pick this game up. The next Tales game looks pretty dope, kinda sad it isn't coming to Switch considering it is running on UE4 and all. Good stuff all around.



Good, exciting news all around. I hope Ni No Kuni finds a decent audience on the Switch. Had a blast with it on PS3, and would consider buying a remaster. The new Tales looks lovely, and Edlen Ring had me at From Software.
