News screens and conceptual artwork.



The developing body behind the upcoming Namco RPG, Monolith Studios, have released a selection of new in-game screens as well as several rendered concept art images. Monolith is renowned for the classic XenoSaga franchise and the upcoming GameCube exclusive will follow suit in a similar style with the story of Baten Kaitos being set in a world of several floating continents each with different races having a selection of skills, features and magic.

According to members of the development team, the game shall utilise a card-based battle system, similar to Sega's Phantasy Star Online III, that incorporates a range of physical and magical moves/skills, but also combine cards to perform special attacks, unique to each character.

Namco is currently keeping the main game's specifics under wraps, gradually releasing small selective information as the Japanese release draws nearer (December 2003). Below is a selection of screenshots to view.
