Aram Jabbari, the Manager of Public Relations and Sales at Atlus, had this to say about Knights in the Nightmare:

“Knights in the Nightmare is the ultimate gamer’s game. It blends fast-paced arcade-style action with deep, rewarding strategy. It offers a dark, emotional story from multiple perspectives, and it’s loaded with replay value and secrets to discover; this video trailer only scratches at the surface of all that. While it may not give someone completely unfamiliar with the game a perfect idea of how the game plays–only playing will accomplish that, it gives folks their best look yet at the enhanced widescreen visuals, the beautiful art and music, and a good feel for the game’s distinct pace and flow. Also, if you don’t watch this trailer, a puppy somewhere will be really, really sad.”

The trailer of the game, which looks like your typical roleplay endeavor can be seen below:

Atlus boasts that the Knights in the Nightmare PSP game features remastered visuals and sounds, optimized controls, and a new opening movie from visionary director Yukio Takatsu (Persona 3, Persona 4, Yggdra Union).

Players can go through extensively, in depth tutorials that provide valuable information on missions. These tuts include plenty of game playing tips, offering an incredibly easy way to learn how to play the game.

The game takes place in a realm between heaven and the underworld. Here, an ancient kingdom once thrived, and at the heart, the castle, Aventheim. In a dark twist of fate, denizens from the netherworld descended upon the kingdom, killing all within it. Deep within the woods, in an abandoned church, the Wisp is released. When it goes to Aventheim, the Wisp reawakens the knights, and they must confront the evils within the caste and their kingdom.

The GRAMMY® Nominee will be spinning for a new audience as he takes to the virtual ones and twos, delivering a pair of pulse-pounding exclusive mixes and joining the ever-growing roster of playable characters, including Deadmau5, David Guetta, DJ Qbert and others.

“DJ Hero 2 is all about bringing people of different backgrounds, ages and music tastes together to have some fun DJ’ing their favorite music. The way the music comes together is fresh and unique and as a DJ, I couldn’t ask for more than that,” said Tiësto. “I am excited to be involved with this medium and to be contributing to a great game with an amazing soundtrack.”

“From touring the globe and working with some of the world’s most visionary artists across five hit albums, to performing at the biggest clubs and the hottest festivals, Tiësto is one of the biggest DJ’s in the world,” said Tim Riley, Vice President of Music Affairs, Activision. “We’ve assembled a cast of the biggest and best DJ’s and having Tiësto bring his unique style adds incredible flavor to the best soundtrack in entertainment.”

Further immersing players into the music, the game offers a heightened level of creative input and allows everyone to add their own touch, directly impacting the beats they’re spinning with freestyle scratching, crossfading and sampling. The game will also feature an all-new career-based Empire Mode where players start out as an up-and-coming DJ on the road to becoming the head of a major entertainment empire, all of which is founded solely on their success as a DJ.
