Tekken Tag Tournament 2 and Ni no Kuni playable at Eurogamer Expo

Fighting game and Level-5/Studio Ghibli RPG join massive line-up.

You didn't think we were done, did you? Not by a long shot. Today we're announcing that Tekken Tag Tournament 2 and Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch will both be playable at this year's Eurogamer Expo.

They join an already-packed line-up for this year's show, which takes place from 27th-30th September at Earls Court, London. Tickets are on sale at www.eurogamerexpo.com.

"It's already causing quite a stir within the gaming world with its blend of superb gameplay from Level-5 and incredible animations produced and supervised by legendary Japanese animation company, Studio Ghibli.
