In the latest issue of Japanese magazine Dengeki PlayStation, it is revealed that White Knight Chronicles, developed by Level-5, will feature cooperative online play.
The online mode will feature characters from the single-player mode, yet will remain independent from the story. Once online, gamers will be able to join rooms of up to 16 players, which will then be broken up into four groups. Each unit will be given quests and challenges they must complete in order to succeed. Players will also be able to chat with one another during play.
So, an untraditional but welcomed move from the team at Level-5. We’ll have more details on the game’s online co-op as soon as they’re available.
