In an announcement that should surprise no one, developer Level 5 has confirmed its PS3 exclusive White Knight Chronicles is getting a North American release.

When asked if this was in the cards, Level 5 president and CEO Akihiro Hino replied, "Yes, it should be, but the launch date has not been determined yet." What's more, it also hasn't not been decided if the game will feature cross-region multiplay — or if multiplay will be region restricted.

Does this really surprise anyone? Let's hope Level 5 figures all this out faster than Square Enix takes to release its games in the UK. Donkey's yonks, folks, donkey's yonks.
