Monolith Soft's Xenosaga Episode II: Jenseits von Gut und Boese (Beyond Good and Evil) will be released in Japan sometime in June. The release of the second installment in Tetsuya Takahashi's epic saga previously had been pushed back, and until today's announcement the game was only listed for a release sometime in 2004. With Xenosaga Episode II's June release, the two most anticipated RPGs of the year might hit Japan this summer, as Square Enix's Final Fantasy XII is also set for a summer 2004 release.
