White Knight Story for PS3 sounds huge -- literally

Imagine a giant turtle carrying an entire town on its back. No, this isn’t a rip from Terry Pratchett’s “Discworld” novels (the giant turtle carried the whole world, if memory recalls correctly), this is an example the scale being delivered in Level 5’s new RPG, White Knight Story. You’ll remember that Level 5 was in charge of Dragon Quest VIII and the soon-to-be-stateside-after-a-ton-of-delays Rogue Galaxy, so you’ve got to expect quality from these guys. WKS is the tale of a boy who can transform into a 7 meter tall knight thanks to an ancient artifact. Enough of that! Let’s get technical. This game is about scale. Texture limitations prevented a title of such, er, magnitude to come into existence on previous consoles. Now, however, we can show such small details on large objects that it’s entirely possible! In fact, Level 5 has to make its own capture studio for this game since it is using an incredibly complex animation blending studio. The battles themselves stray from the typical JRPG and almost sound like a single-player MMO experience, with a palette of skills to set up for each character. You can only control one character in battle at a time like in the ill-received Magna Carta and use only the skills you’ve equipped. It sounds further along in development than expected and we’ll get more details as it’s unveiled over the next couple of days. Awesome!
