The Ni No Kuni series is coming to Xbox and Game Pass

Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch arrives on Xbox for the first time today, playable on Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and via Xbox Game Pass.

This version will be the remastered edition that launched for Nintendo Switch, PC, and PlayStation 4 in 2019. It has never been released on a Microsoft console before.

Its follow-up, Ni No Kuni: Revenant Kingdom, will also be coming to Xbox and Game Pass consoles in 2023, Microsoft confirmed today during its Tokyo Game Show 2022 livestream.

Level 5’s Studio Ghibli-inspired role-playing game series is well worth a try – and its arrival on Xbox today is a big deal.

The first game in the series in particular, which originally launched on PlayStation 3 in 2011 and worked closely with anime masters Studio Ghibli, remains a warm, hearty, and thrilling RPG experience all these years later.
