It looks like PS3 has scored another exclusive(in the home console space) with Studio Ghibli and Level 5’s gorgeous RPG, Ninokuni. Ninokuni was earlier exclusive to the DS platform, but a revelation by Famitsu has confirmed that the game will be heading to the PS3 in 2011. If you can’t begin to imagine what it would look like on the PS3, we’ve got just the thing for you.
Check out the first trailer for Ninokuni [PS3] below
In Ninokuni, the player assumes the role of a 13 year-old boy named Oliver, a resident of Hotroit city whose mother Arie dies suddenly. A doll previously given to Oliver by his mother reveals itself to be a male fairy named Shizuku, who gives Oliver a magic book that allows him to go to the world of “Ninokuni,” a reality parallel to his own, where the fairy states the boy may be able to revive his mother. There he encounters alternate versions of people he knows.
