*UPDATE* Europe gets Blue Dragon on August 24; North America, August 28
Microsoft has finally announced a concrete release date for video game Blue Dragon in Europe. If you haven’t heard about this one yet, take note that Shu and his friends will be arriving in your retail stores on August 24 with a price tag of 44.99 Euros and that’s roughly around US$ 60.
Microsoft is aiming for this RPG title to “change the landscape of Xbox 360 gaming”. They may be on the right track with renowned producer Hironobu Sakaguchi and his development studio Mistwalker being on the helm of this project.
As if those names aren’t super enough, the character designs for Blue Dragon were done by Akira Toriyama (Dragon Ball Z) and the music was provided by composer Nobuo Uematsu (Final Fantasy). Given these names, don’t get the impression that Blue Dragon is all about sugary coatings as its story is rather deep and engaging as well.
More updates on Blue Dragon as we get them.
*UPDATE* We promised you a Blue Dragon update and we’ve got one for the gamers in North America. Europe will get the upcoming Xbox 360 video game a few days before North America, who’ll get to see it on the shelves in August 28. Be sure to mark your calendars.
