Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch Remastered Edition
A Ghibli-drawn JRPG with a genuinely moving story about grief, wrapped around monster-taming combat that fights your commands more than the monsters do.
GamerScout Verdict
Worth it for the Ghibli craft and a story about grief that actually earns its ending, if you can forgive clumsy AI allies.

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch Remastered Edition
The first hour will test you. Ni no Kuni opens with a slow, tutorial-heavy stretch where Oliver mopes, Drippy explains everything twice in a Welsh accent you either love or mute, and the combat hasn't unlocked enough systems to be interesting yet. Push through it. Around the time you start capturing familiars and swapping them mid-fight, the real game shows up: a hybrid of Pokemon-style creature raising and real-time party action, where you dodge in circles, land glims, and juggle three creatures per character while your AI allies burn MP on nothing. The story underneath is the reason to stay. It's a children's book about a boy processing his mother's death, and it lands harder than most adult-targeted RPGs manage. The cracks are real. Familiar management gets fiddly, the AI companions never stop being a liability, and the back half leans on fetch errands that pad hours without adding anything. The remaster's contribution is resolution and frame rate, not fixes. But the worldbuilding holds, the Errand system doubles as a genuinely sweet economy of borrowed emotions, and the final act pays off what the opening sets up. Bring patience for hour one and a tolerance for JRPG busywork.
