If you haven’t made up your mind about Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch, the RPG developed by Level-5 in collaboration with Studio Ghibli, then this might push you to a decision. You now have until August 31 to pre-order and get some sweet bonus goodies above the normal pre-order goodies.
Before we get to the items, the developers are taking a page out of the Kickstarter manual, and using the power of fandom, they will add more items to the Wizard’s Edition haul depending on how many order from ClubNamco.com. The deadline is, as already stated, August 31, so blindly sign up now before you even know what you are getting!
If you made it to this paragraph before pre-ordering, then here is what you can get so far for $99 that you can pre-order anywhere (as far as I know):
- 300+ page hardback physical copy of the Wizard’s Companion, the spellbook Oliver uses throughout his journey in the game. The full-color Wizard’s Companion contains a bestiary of all the creatures found in the game along with in-depth item descriptions, spells and history of the other world.
- The limited-run Wizard’s Edition will also contain a plush doll of Drippy, Oliver’s guide through his adventures,
as well as exclusive “golden mite” and “golden drongo” DLC familiars.
The press release looks like this:
