Mii, a member of the family, enlists private detective Kogoro to help locate the stone.Īnd seriously, that’s probably all you really need to know about the Project X Zone story to get a kick out of it. This all started happening, apparently, when the Portalstone, a treasure of the Kouryuji Family, is stolen. Mysterious dimensional portals are appearing randomly, connecting different worlds through different times. The year is 20XX AD (I don’t really know what that means either) and the world is in the middle of a “quiet chaos”. I have so much love for the first game, though I’m ashamed to say that its sequel is sitting in my never-ending backlog.Almost any cross over game / movie / whatever is bound to have some kind of flimsy story tying together all of these worlds and Project X Zone is no different. I honestly never thought I’d be writing about Baten Kaitos in a news post.

What do they want to see from it? What platform do they want to see it on? If we can gather more voices for Baten Kaitos, then maybe we can start something with Bandai Namco Entertainment. As for itself outside of Project X Zone, well, I can’t really say much about that yet, but I think we need some substantial feedback from fans before moving forward with a project like that.

“The reason there’s not Baten Kaitos characters in the story is because they just didn’t seem to fit in anywhere. “So, do you remember that KOS-MOS and T-elos, from Xenosaga, were in the first Project X Zone game? We didn’t include them just because Monolith Soft was developing Project X Zone, we put them in there because there were so many fans of their games on the team, and that they happened to make sense for the world of the game. Tsukanaka was also asked if we’ll ever see Baten Kaitos again, even if it’s outside of Project X Zone.

Monolith Soft developed Baten Kaitos and its sequel along with the Project X Zone titles. Project X Zone 2 director Kensuke Tsukanaka, speaking with Siliconera, explained why Baten Kaitos isn’t represented in the games.
