And here I was hopin' for somethin' new... Bleh.
 
Sony released White Knight Story in Japan on December 25 2008, and have just announced the first major update for the game. The update will be called "1st. Wave" and has been developed with user opinions, to improve playability of the game. So how are they going to do this:

- Added a new easy-to-use screen menu.
- Kept the classic menu, but added two additional interfaces that can be chosen in preferences.
- Improved online Co-op matchmaking, so that you are matched with people of a similar level.
- And more features that have yet to be announced.

The update will also add support for some new quests. The release date for "1st. Wave" is still to be announced. It is also unknown whether all these features and downloadable content will be available on the disc when the game comes to the West.

Expect these updates to be on the disc when it ships in the US/EU.

Also, got the game just now.
 
I want the game now :(
 
about time we get something original for ps3 over here. The only reason why my ps3 is not collecting dust right now is Valkyria Chronicles lol.
 
Like White Knight Chronicles? Good news, Sequel confirmed.

So says Japanese magazine Famitsu. In an article about the White Knight Chronicles 2nd Wave update, the following text appears:

続編も制作中　(zokuhen mo seisaku chuu)

That means something like "a sequel is being made". Details are scant, and the article details the 2nd Wave update. The last big update to the game, dubbed the 1st Wave, was back in the Spring.

It's been out in Japan since December and it did really well, so, yeah, sequel time. The localization will be done and the release will be in a few months anyways.

Also, extra info:

-in WKC I, your avatar only tagged along, but in WKC II, the avatar is planned to be treated differently

Hino: "I was pretty shocked with the WKC Famitsu review score. Because of that, we've put a lot of effort into updates. The playability has increased significantly now."

Edit: and I don't know if your being sarcastic or not (you never really can tell on the internet anyways) but WKC is by Level 5 and SCEI's Japan Studio.

White Knight Chronicles will be out shortly before Christmas here, it's not that long to wait. Hopefully though they'll try and aim for faster localizations in the next game.
 
Japan? lol I doubt that :P I don't get why Japan is slow at localization, far as I can tell US companies localize pretty soon after compared to the Japanese
