Atlus packs US 360 release of Divinity II: The Dragon Knight Saga with extras

Atlus USA will be releasing Divinity II: The Dragon Knight Saga in sumptuous form for Xbox 360 owners in the US.

The game has a lengthy release history, beginning in 2009 when it was plain old Divinity II. Developers Larian Studios admitted that this version of the title had to be rushed out of the door to meet production deadlines, so they returned to the game in 2010 to give it a proper, polished release.

This resulted in Divinity II: The Dragon Knight Saga, a rebalanced version of the game bundled with the lengthy expansion Flames of Vengeance (a move that also improved the title's rather lacklustre ending.)

The Dragon Knight Saga was released on both PC and Xbox 360 in Europe, but only now is the game getting a US 360 release. This is courtesy of Atlus USA, who've bundled the title with a sizeable 52-page artbook (samples of which can be viewed here) and full soundtrack CD.

The extras will only be available with pre-orders of the game, so if you're interested get in there before the release date of 12 April. Both GameStop and Amazon are carrying this version, and Atlus say other major retailers will be stocking it too.

Heck, Atlus has even put together a new trailer of the game which you can watch below. Unfortunately, it bustles the great writing and jokes out of the way with noise and evil baddies and the like, but such is the way with trailers.
