Ougon no Kizuna Lives, Has Trailer and Release Date to Prove it

Jaleco's dark and brooding Wii action-RPG, Ougon no Kizuna (lit. Golden Bonds), has been silent for quite a while now. Jaleco is not necessarily known for RPGs, so I wouldn't have been surprised if the title had been canned.

Not so, apprently, as the company has recently released not only a new trailer for the game, but also confirmed a Japanese release date for May.

The trailer is nothing too interesting (mostly just the main character slashing his sword around), but it does prove that the game still exists. So that's a good thing, right?

You can check out the trailer below.



Additionally, though we haven't yet seen the game in playable motion yet, Jaleco has already begun hyping the title through TV commercials. I'm not sure they really convey the idea of "dark and brooding action-RPG on the Wii," but they are... uh, interesting.

You can check them out below. (Warning: they are super weird.)



Ougon no Kizuna will be available for Nintendo Wii on May 28, 2009 in Japan.
