Good news from our friends in Japan. Fragile at long last has a release date. And to celebrate, we've got screens of the game's introduction!

Bandai Namco shared a final release date today for its big gift to RPG-starved Wii owners. A deep RPG experience awaits all of Japan on January 22. Fragile will carry a price point of 7,140 yen.

Coinciding with this announcement, Bandai Namco shared a dozen or so screens of the game's opening movie. Combining CG and hand-drawn animation, the opening provides a glimpse at the main cast as well as a look at the mysterious red tower that was alluded to at the Tokyo Game Show.

That mystery should be cleared up shortly! You can bet we'll be all over the import when this one hits Japan early next year and hopefully not too much later internationally.
