The Last Story comes to North America August 14

Few headlines have been more satisfying to write than this one. Mistwalker’s The Last Story finally closes the book on the long-running localization saga on August 14, when XSEED brings it to North America. Yep, we’ve got a date. 

XSEED made the announcement on Twitter, where it also revealed it would be giving away soundtrack CDs as a pre-order bonus. 

It’s been years since the game was originally revealed, and the will they/won’t they drama concerning Nintendo and localization has been quite an adventure. I’m glad it ended well, and I will now impatiently await August. Yippee!
