White Knight Chronicles didn't have the best reception here at Game Rant. Though  in our review we did touch on the fact that it showed potential, a potential that will hopefully be found in White Knight Chronicles 2.  While we wait for the game's lengthy development, and likely lengthier localization process, andriasang got their hands on some great screenshots.  The shots show returning characters Leonard, Yulie, and Eldore, along with antagonists Grazel and The Black Knight. Conspicuously absent from the screenshots are Princess Cisna, and Dragon Knight Caesar. There's also two new faces, a blue knight and a young horned girl. While the cast doesn't appear to have changed, we can hope their actions become  more mature.

The combat also looks strikingly similar, featuring a similar group of blue bars that represent selectable actions for the player. Even the monsters they are fighting are the same models as the original with updated textures. You can also see the White Knight fighting along side his party members, one of the exciting abilities found in White Knight Chronicles.  Overall, White Knight Chronicles 2 is looking extremely similar to the original, possibly for the worse, but we can hope that in action the mechanics have been tuned into a smoother experience.

If anything though, these screenshots have left me more skeptical than I was before I saw them.
