White Knight Chronicles: Origins, known in Japan as Shirokishi Monogatari Episode Portable: Dogma Wars (白騎士物語 -episode.portable- ドグマ・ウォーズ?, lit. "White Knight Chronicles Episode Portable: Dogma Wars"), is a role-playing video game developed by SCE Japan Studio, and published by Sony Computer Entertainment exclusively for the PlayStation Portable. The game is a prequel to the 2008 title White Knight Chronicles, and was announced for Japan in the June 30, 2010 issue of Famitsu and was finally released on February 3, 2011. In Europe, the game was released on June 8 in most European countries, June 9 for Australia and New Zealand and June 10 for UK and Ireland. Unfortunately, there were no longer plans for a North American release.
White Knight Chronicles: Origins signs the player character up to the Mobile Corps, a mercenary organization that operates via train. Traversing into the no-man's-land between Athwan and Yshrenia, whisking you into a thrilling world of shuddering battles between hulking warriors.
Rattling across the vast plains that separate two sworn foes is the special steam train that acts as your central hub. Through this hub you access missions as they become available, and spend earned Grace Points on new equipment.
When the trusty Mobile Corps train rolls into a new, exotic location, you select a team of three skilled mercenaries to accompany you and stride out into the unknown. You can even add carriages to it to make room for new characters; plus, if you own White Knight Chronicles II on PlayStation 3, you can transfer data between the two games and receive special bonuses aboard the train.
The battle system used in White Knight Chronicles: Origin is a real-time system identical to its console counterpart, where the battle mode is initiated automatically when enemies are present.
Before a battle the player optionally goes into the "Battle Preparation" menu (accessible at any time) and chooses up to three sets of five commands for your in-game avatar.
