Ni No Kuni: Revenant Kingdom Delayed Into March 2018

Early 2018 is thick with content and this Level 5 RPG is getting out of the way of much of it.

Things have been quiet over at Bandai Namco when it comes Ni No Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom, the sequel to the Level 5 and Studio Ghibli-developed RPG Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch, but now we know why. Revenant Kingdom was originally targeting January, but the developers have confirmed that the game is pushed back to March 23, 2018.

Push Square reported the confirmation, but thankfully it's not being pushed too far into the year. Despite the development stage of the game, it may be smart to move further into a year that is starting almost as strong as 2017 with titles like Dragon Ball FighterZ, Monster Hunter: World, Shadow of the Colossus, Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Metal Gear Survive, Sea of Thieves, Yakuza 6: Song of Life, A Way Out, and more. The shift to March 23 gets this upcoming RPG out of harm's way.

Ni No Kuni: Revenant Kingdom was original revealed at PlayStation Experience 2015 and looks to continue with incredibly charming art design of the original with a more action-intense combat system. It will be available on PS4 and PC on March 23, 2018.
