Namco has updated the official website for its Monolith-developed GameCube RPG Baten Kaitos - Owaranai Tsubasa to Ushinawareta Umi. Among the game's locations are the cloudy kingdom of Diadem and the frontier country Sadal Suud. The peaceful rural village Cebalrai, where Baten Kaitos' story begins is located on Sadal Suud. The ancient city of Pherkad is the capital of Diadem. The man who rules this kindgom is 32-year old king Ladekahn. His people respectfully refer to him as the white flame, as he is widely trusted and a master of literary and military arts. Rodolfo is the lord of Sadal Suud. Unlike Ladekahn however, he is anything but popular among his people. Last but not least, Gibari is a fisherman from the village Nashira. He will join Kalas and Co. on their quest.

Take a look at all three of these new characters (along with some other pics) on our updated artwork page. In addition, the screen shot gallery has been updated with 12 new screens.

Baten Kaitos - Owaranai Tsubasa to Ushinawareta Umi will be available in Japan sometime in December 2003.
