Monster-hunting, anyone? "Toukiden 2" was released in Japan July last year. Like the sequel, both the first game and its enhanced re-release, "Toukiden: Kiwami" were well-received. Now, Koei Tecmo brings good news as its North America and Europe release has been confirmed.
"Toukiden 2" March release
Like the previous titles, "Toukiden 2" will be available on PS4, Vita, and PC. Although there has been no update if it is on digital only for the handheld, it's safe to say that both platforms will be getting a retail release (via Push Square). For the release dates, the game will be available in North America on March 21, 2017. And then a few days after, it will be released in Europe on March 24, 2017.
"Toukiden 2" pre-order promotions and characters to expect
According to Silicone Era, pre-order promos have been annoucned. For clients in North America, you can pre-order your game at Amazon, Best Buy, EB Games, or GameStop, and get Tenko Costume armor and Chika Rin In, Sanada Masayuki, Sanada Noboyuki, and Sarutobi Sasuke Mitama.
Confirmation of some the characters and features that will be appearing in this installment have been announced as well. They will join you in the quest to protect Mahoroba Village and defeat Oni:
- Benizuki, the town's strongest slayer
- Gwen, a British slayer
- Hakase, a professor
- Homura, a former thief
- Tokitsugu, a Machina with a soul
Tenko can join you in the world as well, if you bond with them, and other Machina can be found, repaired, and used to get materials. Another thing to look forward to is, for the first time, players will also have access to a Demon Hand. This allows their avatar to reach new places and attack Oni.
