When I was looking up information on studio ghibli and came across some news about a game that they are releasing. The game is called Ni No kuni (Second Land). It is a role playing game developed by studio ghibli and level -5 game developer.
This is the plot of the game, pulled diretly from wikipedia.
"The player assumes the role of a 13 year-old boy named Oliver, a resident of Hotroit City, whose mother, Arie, dies suddenly. A doll, previously given to Oliver by his mother, reveals itself to be a male fairy named Shizuku, who gives Oliver a magic book that allows him to go to the world of "Ninokuni," a reality parallel to his own, where the fairy states the boy may be able to revive his mother. There, he encounters alternate versions of people he knows."
There is 2 versions to be released, one on the Nintendo DS and one on the Playstation 3. The PS3 version will have gaming graphics strongly replicating the traditional animation art form of Studio Ghibli therefore this will definitely be a treat for anyone who appreciates that style.
Studio Ghibli produced some of my favourite films so I am very excited to see what they will make of this game. The brilliant animations and wonderful storytelling capabilities shown in past films makes me believe that this will be an amazing game and a huge success.
