Bandai Namco en Level-5 hebben laten weten dat de tweede grote uitbreiding voor Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom zal arriveren op 19 maart 2019. Via de Japanse website is alvast de eerste info vrijgegeven en de titel zal ‘The Wizard’s Companion’ zijn. Dit is echter vertaald vanuit het Japans, dus het kan zijn dat de officiële Engelse titel iets afwijkt.

De uitbreiding is onderdeel van de Season Pass voor de game en hieronder tref je alvast de eerste details. Deze uitbreiding brengt nieuwe episodes met zich mee die in het verleden zullen graven van enkele hoofdpersonages. Pandora Night is de naam van een nieuwe arena vol time attack-style battles.

Of de release in het Westen af zal wijken van de Japanse moet nog blijken, maar Bandai Namco zal waarschijnlijk snel een Engelstalig persbericht rondsturen met meer concrete informatie.
