After roughly a year of Internet activism, Operation Rainfall and its supporters are finally one step closer to having their wish fully realized. This morning, XSEED Games announced it will be teaming up with Nintendo to bring The Last Story to North America, exclusively for the Wii.
“I am very happy to be able to confirm that The Last Story will be released in North America,” stated Hironobu Sakaguchi, CEO of MISTWALKER. “XSEED Games has a reputation for bringing high-quality JRPGs to America, and I’m sure they will do a great job with this release too.”
The Last Story is a sprawling cinematic experience that follows the tales of a band of mercenaries as they try to make a better life for themselves in the midst of a dying empire. It is roughly set to release this summer.
Now if only Pandora’s Tower could be released in North America, Operation Rainfall can be considered a complete success.
