Acquire who is popular for the Tenchu and The Way of the Samurai series will be in charge of the latest iteration of the Wizardry series. Atlus, the king of niche titles, published and localized the last iteration in North America and we can only hope they do the same for the latest version.

The earliest installments of the Wizardry series were quite popular due to the dungeon crawling aspects and being released at the height of the Dungeons & Dragons popularity. Hopefully Acquire will be able to spice up this dungeon crawling RPG for its PlayStation 3 exclusive debut. You can look forward to an official announcement and more info when the Tokyo Game Show 2009 rolls around.

    Who's Acquire...? The release date will probably be two years away anyway.

    I had Wizardry on the PS2, it sucked hard.

    Doesn't exactly put my hopes up

    I was smiling, VERY widely when I read that Acquire were the guys and gals who brought us Tenchu. Then I saw they're making wizardry... whatever the hell that is... and it vanished. Then I saw the source and lost any and all interest.

    Aquire did the Tenchu series.But they lost the title to From Software.They then made Shinobido: Way of the Ninja which was never released in NA.They also made a sequel titled Shinobido: Tales of the Ninja which was released on PSP, also not released in NA.

    It's funny that this article pops up while I am playing SWotN (when I'm not playing DBZBT3 that is).I rather enjoy SWotN.
