Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days Gets a Localization

[Rock Raiyu]

A North American release date has not been announced at this time, but since Square Enix USA is announcing Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days we’re surely going to see it in English sometime next year.

News Source: Siliconera

Hopefully Birth By Sleep gets localized too!

From the Press Release:

Uncover the events that took place during the year Sora was asleep regaining his lost memories. KINGDOM HEARTS 358/2 Days revolves around Roxas, the “other” hero from KINGDOM HEARTS II, and his days as a member of Organization XIII. Follow Roxas and the rest of Organization XIII across the various Disney Worlds, and discover the connection between him, Sora, and the mysterious 14th member, and the reasons behind his eventual departure from the organization. KINGDOM HEARTS 358/2 Days also features a multiplayer mode for the first time, allowing players to control their favorite Organization XIII members!

Wow, I never thought it WOULDN'T be localized... Well, it's good to have it "official" now, but I would have liked to have a release date...

 

[Mei-o]

That was expected, I want a release date!

 

[cosmo2389]

Nice, I expected this, but a release date would be nice...

As for KH RE:COM... When I found out about it, I was like, no way, it's coming out, when, tomorrow... WTF, how did I NOT know...!?!?

Squeenix needs to make bigger release date announcements... Especially for the uber popular KH series!

*gasp* Ohmygosh! NEW AND EXCITING!

 

[DarkLG]

[Gaisuto]

Hopes its out january 09.

Keep dreaming. Even Japan has to wait til February.

 

[Raika]

WOOT it's confirmed OMG!! I can't WAIT!!

 

[DarkLG]

I think it won't be out until april 09 then just after the Dsi release.

 

[DeMoN]

Spring 09 is my guess too. Can't wait; I loved Chain of Memories.

 

[Rock Raiyu]

I think it won't be out until april 09 then just after the Dsi release.

That's probably true. That means there may be a chance we can get the limited edition 358/2 Days DSi!

 

[DarkLG]

If the limited edition is released in the U.S. then that's going to be the DSi I'm going to buy.

 

[Gaisuto]

...We aren't getting the DSi until near the end of next year. Where's this April talk coming from now?

 

[DarkLG]

Oh...sorry I'm wrong it ain't coming out till the 4th quarter of 09.Most likely in November.

 

[Maverick_z]

very cool news

 

[iPikachu]

um....

Kingdom Hearts is about a guy with keys right????...

 

[elixirdream]

yeah.. the boy with a key and with the disney characters

 

[LivingToDie]

How long does it usually takes before a game comes to jap. to us. ?

 

[granville]

There were some new clean pictures released too:

Those were previously shown in a scan, but these are taken directly from the game and are much better looking.

*Sighs* I may sound like a douche but what the hell is Kingdom Hearts. I never played it so that goes to show I'm being an ass on purpose!
