Well, it's been known for almost a year now that Eternal Sonata would be coming out on the PS3 platform in Japan; however, just recently, Namco Bandai was finally ready to make the announcement that the PS3 port of the game will also be making its way stateside too. This means the extended PS3 version of the game with more characters, cutscenes, and outfits will be out sometime this Fall on the PS3 for all you loving RPG fans. Nothing like listening to some Chopin on BlueRay to get you in the mode for some light/dark battle madness.

Santa Clara, Calif - Leading video games publisher and developer NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc., today announced Eternal Sonata™ for the PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system. An award-winning role-playing game inspired by the life of legendary composer Frederic Chopin, Eternal Sonata is set to arrive on the PLAYSTATION 3 system this fall with new quests, new playable characters, new music and more.

A unique role-playing experience, Eternal Sonata lets gamers travel with 19th century composer Frederic Chopin as he explores a magical dream world during his final hours among the living. Utilizing a breathtaking cel-shaded graphics engine that gives form to the ethereal beauty of Chopin's music, the game transports players to a vivid world inhabited by brave heroes, fearsome monsters and stunning environments. The game's fast-paced battle system features an innovative"light and dark" mechanic which allows players to execute different special attacks depending on whether they stand in light or shadow, and transforms enemies into new and fearsome forms. Combining turn-based and real-time elements, this system allows for creative strategy and engaging action in each encounter, breaking new ground in the role-playing genre.
