Ar Tonelico Premium Box Details Confirmed
Posted by: Hayate on Wednesday, December 6, 2006 at 5:59 PM

NIS America will be releasing Ar Tonelico in a premium box early next year. The box will include a full color 52 page hardcover artbook in addition to the game. NIS released a picture of the box on their website, but the box art will be changed for the final version. Also, it has been confirmed that the game will feature both Japanese and English language dialogue. We'll have a full review of the game and bonus materials when the release date gets closer.


Some very nice scans and images from RPGamer (http://www.rpgamer.com/games/other/ps2/artonelico/artonelico.html).

God Damn I can't wait to play this game. The art is great and the music sounds fantastic. :D

NISA has the online order up on their site. It's changed a bit, so you'll need to get an order code first in order to preorder the game next month...

Yeah, but SMT DDS also came in a deluxe box and that was a fucking great game.

I really hope Ar Tonelico turns out well... the screenshots make the game look pretty interesting so hopefully the gameplay will deliver.

We're getting 4 PS2 RPGs that have a good chance of being excellent in 2007: this, Dawn of Mana, Persona 3, and Rogue Galaxy... so hopefully they'll all turn out.

I'm preordering this at EB, as soon as I hear about them getting the soundtrack. This is definitely the game I'm most excited about, in the first quarter of 2007 (due to being a huge fan of Atelier Iris 1 and 2).

Personally, I rather not have a premium box at extra cost (I just want to pay $50 for the game and soundtrack), but oh well.

MAGNA CARTA!!

and that game was awful!!I actually liked Magna Carta, but I wouldn't say the game was great. ;)

*officially pumped up even more*

Man that artbook looks sweet. I assume we're not getting the full soundtrack, but some songs is better than none. :D

The official site is up and they have a trailer for it. Seems interesting. I may purchase it since I'm a sucker for artbooks. The music sounds great though. I'm not a huge fan of the english voice acting but glad to hear it will include the japanese track, hopefully.
