Radiant Historia News
Opinion Chrono Trigger Isn't The Only Great Time-Travel RPG On DS
Chronologically perfect
No less than an hour into Radiant Historia, Stocke – a special agent in Astiel’s Special Intelligence Unit and the game’s main protagonist – is on the brink of death. His mission to rescue a spy who has infiltrated the Granorg army has failed, and his subordinates Raynie and Marco have been killed. But it’s not...
Talking Point What DS & 3DS Games Would You Still Like To See On Switch?
Dual-screen dreams
We are still receiving top-notch releases by the bucketload on Switch, but as the console enters the latter phase of its lifespan, we are well and truly in remake & remaster territory. The Wii U barrel has quickly run dry (though some remain that we'd like to see make the jump to the hybrid) and recent years have seen Nintendo...

An enhanced remake of the DS classic
Yesterday, we reported on a mysterious new teaser site from Atlus which pointed towards a new Radiant Historia title in development.

News Atlus Launches a Teaser Site Hinting at a New Radiant Historia
Yes, please
Relatively late in the life of the Nintendo DS, Atlus released a fascinating RPG called Radiant Historia which was quite well received. Borrowing heavily from Chrono Trigger, Radiant Historia similarly revolved around time travel, with the main draw being that you could travel along the timeline and cause different effects which resulted...
News Mitsuru Hirata Expresses Interest in Pursuing a Radiant Historia Sequel
"Someday a new Radiant Historia!"
As some of you may remember, Atlus released a JRPG on the DS a few years back called Radiant Historia. The game took a page from the book of Chrono Trigger and was heavily centered around a time travel mechanic wherein the protagonist had to devise the best possible path to take in order to avoid the apocalypse...
News Atlus Reprints Radiant Historia, Due Next Month
Historic
Like most Atlus games, critically acclaimed DS RPG Radiant Historia only had a limited print run upon its release last year, leaving many interested customers unable to find the game at retail. Now, nearly a year after its first release, Atlus is readying another production run. The next round of games will drop in late March, with Atlus...
Podcast NLFM Episode 19: DS Swan Songs
Not with a whimper, but a bang!
So 3DS is out in places other than Japan now, hooray! But just because its successor is stealing the spotlight, that doesn't mean the DS is content with resting on its two-dimensional laurels. Why, it's not even April yet and it's already seen at least five fantastic games this year with some fantastic music to go...
News Radiant Historia is Waiting for You in February 2011
A time travelling RPG that's not made by Square?!
Atlus has been a staunch supporter of the DS for years, releasing some quality, quirky RPGs in that time, and the company has just announced another title bound for North America next year in the form of Radiant Historia. The press release hits all the key areas, promising to "channel the heart...
About The Game
In the midst of an unending war for dominance between two super-powers, Special Intelligence Agent Stocke is assigned to a routine escort mission that goes horribly awry.
However, wielding a mysterious book called the White Chronicle, Stocke discovers a way to travel to the intersection of time itself: Historia. With this power in his hands, he must travel back and forth through key events and an entirely alternate timeline to right the world's ill-fated course. The lives of his companions, the fate of nations, and the resolution of an impending disaster that now threatens the land all depend on Stocke's ability to discern the one "true" history.
Game Features:
- Restore the True History--With the power of the White Chronicle, the crossroads of time is yours to traverse. Jump back and forth across various turning points in history in order to save your world from destruction.
- Your Choices Matter--Difficult decisions face you at every turn. Who will you side with? Who will you choose to help? Your choices progress the story and bring you to drastically different ends. Return to previous choices to initiate changes whose effects ripple throughout the timelines.
- Push Your Foes Around--Use the turn order and your special ability to manipulate the positions of enemies on the field to set up combination attacks and gain the upper hand.

I just read the feature in NP for this, and I think I'm in love
@Xkhaoz yeah it's seems like it will be a good RPG. Going to buy it.
This looks pretty tight. If the reviews are positive then I'm definitely picking this up.
Nintendo Power gave an in-depth feature on this, and the time-travel machanics are AWESOME!!! I'm expecting a 9/10.
The next Chrono Trigger, perhaps?
If its THAT good, then I'll have no choice but to buy it.
This is the best DS game I've ever played. It's incredibly fresh, the story's well-written, and the music is some of the best I've ever heard in a video game. I wasn't expecting this kind of quality at all.
Any Europeans know any good place to import this from?
@tealovertoma, this may be a little late but my local Grainger Games had a brand new copy for £25. Sweet
I just got this game im amazed I just herd of it im way late.
Hands down the best RPG for the DS. And the DS has had a lot of great RPGs.
Err, I should clarify, it's the best original RPG for the DS. Chrono Trigger is still very much in the running for the overall title.
Great game. Nobody should miss it.
