Gather ’round, Nintendo Wii owners, for XSEED Games and Mistwalker have an epic story to tell. The Last Story, that is, an incredible role-playing adventure from the creator of Final Fantasy.
The Last Story finally makes it to North America next month, on August 14th to be specific. As previously announced, all first-print copies of the game will be deemed Limited Editions containing a 44-page softcover art book and exclusive storybook packaging. If that wasn’t enough to get you to throw down for a pre-order, maybe this will.
By pre-ordering The Last Story at participating retailers such as Amazon.com, EB Games Canada or GameStop, you’ll also score a bonus soundtrack CD featuring a sampler-size helping of seven songs from the game. Nobuo Uematsu scored the game, so you’re totally going to want this if you have any interest in video game music.

Fans demanded it. Campaigned for it even. XSEED Games (in partnership with Nintendo) made it happen: The Last Story, the Wii RPG from Mistwalker studio and the father of Final Fantasy, is being localized for release in North America this summer (July 10 is the current ship date).
As the cherry on top of this delicious role-playing sundae surprise, XSEED now announces that Hironobu Sakaguchi’s latest masterpiece will launch as an automatic Limited Edition. All first print copies, at the regular $49.99 price, will come with a softcover art book stuffed with 44 pages of beautiful pictures to look at. An outer box, custom made in the style of a fantasy storybook, will also be included, the perfect collectible case option for storing the game and art book and displaying them on your game shelf when not in use.
Judging by how fast Xenoblade Chronicles flew off the shelves at launch–as a GameStop exclusive at that–you better throw down for a pre-order fast before the Limited Edition printing is all spoken for.
