Seems it's offered by a 3rd party, which is perfect for Amazon (most retailers have one).

Still waiting for the game to be $15.
 
Word on the street is that White Knight Chronicles 2 is going to come with this game on the disc with some enhancements back-ported from the sequel. If you've waited this long you might want to hold off and just pick that up instead.
 
It should be mentioned that White Knight Chronicles is today's Deal of the Day, so tomorrow the price will go back to where it was.
 
Thanks for the info about WKC2. After reading the posts here, and checking on google, I'm going to now wait/pass on this because of getting the game most probably bundled later.

Probably because it took almost a year and a half to localize and release the first game after the Japanese release and even assuming this is released in Japan in the Fall, it hasn't been announced for the US yet and it could be a long time before it makes it way over here.

Actually, it has been confirmed by the devs themselves that an enhance version will be included in WKC2.... so you are right to advise ppl to wait

Wow, really? Any details on how it's going to be enhanced?
 
Was $20 on Gamefly a while back. Put it at the bottom of my backlog, will probably never play it.

Didn’t buy the first White Knight Chronicles? Not a problem. An updated version of the original game will be included in the sequel.

Rumors about Level-5 including the original White Knight Chronicles in part 2 have been lingering around the web for awhile. Famitsu finally confirmed the reports and provided tons of details.

Thankfully, Andriasang’s Anoop Gantayat has once again provided a summary of all the information. Remember, this is only confirmed for the Japanese release of the game. An international edition hasn’t even been announced yet.

So what exactly is being included? According to the report, everything. The entire first game and every bit of downloadable content from the original will be available in White Knight Chronicles 2. Pretty awesome, no? Well, it gets even better. Level-5 is updating the original game to the standards set by the sequel. As a result, White Knight Chronicles will look better and have new gameplay mechanics.

The reasons for including the first WKC make sense. The developers were worried that gamers might skip out on the second game if they never played the first. It’s impossible to miss out on the story now. The devs also want players of the original game to replay WKC with all of the new gameplay mechanics that have been added.

When screenshots of WKC2 first came out, we noticed that custom avatars were undergoing transformations. At least, that’s what we thought the characters were doing. It looks like we were right. Your customized avatar can now transform into a knight. If you weren’t aware, this was not possible in the first game.

The knights that your avatar can transform into were apparently created by researchers from The Kingdom of Balandor. These knights can be customized just like your avatar. At first, there will only be a few colors to choose from. You’ll be able to unlock additional customization options by completing the appropriate quests. Players are also able boost the stats of their knight with “Core Units” and “Jewel Points”.

Check out the screenshots of the Arc Knights below. Notice that characteristics of each knight is different. It looks like the creation tool is quite powerful.

The online mode was briefly discussed. Just like with the original, there will be downloadable quests (twice a month). Level-5 is looking to host events during the holidays, although nothing has been set in stone yet. Expect collaborative quests. In fact, one has already been announced and it’s with the Weekly Toro Station news application available to PS3 owners in Japan. It was also confirmed that you can have up to six members in a party. Will there be transformations online? Yes, although it seems like there will be limitations.

White Knight Chronicles: Awakening of Light and Darkness hits Japan on July 8th.
