News A Free-to-Play Version of Toukiden 2 Will Slay Some Oni Later This Month
Back to battle
Toukiden 2 is a great action role-playing sequel, but it's safe to say that it's been overlooked by many. The title's online community is almost non-existent, which makes its multiplayer component feel a bit pointless unless you're playing organised games with friends. Fortunately, the player count may be spiking in the near future,...

News Toukiden 2's New Trailer Highlights Open World Gameplay, Multiplayer, and Story
Slayer
In a month that boasts Horizon: Zero Dawn (in Europe), NieR: Automata, and Mass Effect: Andromeda, it's admittedly going to be pretty tough for Toukiden 2 to stand out. It's a shame, too, because the demon-slaying sequel appears to be doing everything right, throwing open world exploration into the mix alongside a new cast of characters and...

Off with their limbs
Toukiden 2 is setting itself up to be a pretty interesting sequel, boasting much more open environments and a whole cast of new characters to interact with.

Comes to PS4 and Vita in spring
Koei Temco's released a five-minute animation for Toukiden 2. The clip features characters from the upcoming sequel as they battle against a rough looking 3D demon.

News Toukiden 2's Opening Movie Will Get You in the Mood for Some Demon Slaying
The bigger they are
Koei Tecmo's revealed Toukiden 2's opening CG movie, and it's pretty much exactly what you'd expect. A non-specific main character teams up with the sequel's refreshed cast and they hack a giant Oni to bits in stylish fashion. Hey, at least the video's being true to the game. Still, it's worth a watch if you're looking to inject...

News Toukiden 2's Looking Sharp in New PS4 Gameplay Trailer
Demonic dismemberment
There's something incredibly satisfying about lopping off the limbs of giant demons in Toukiden, and we're glad that Toukiden 2's new trailer seems to agree with us. Full of hacks, slashes, and weird, powerful spirit hands, the action role-playing title's fresh video's full of new gameplay clips. Due out later this year on...

News Our First Real Look at Toukiden 2 Isn't Far Away
Omega forced
Toukiden 2 popped up at Sony's Tokyo Game Show last year, but we've heard very little since. We know that it's going to adapt an open world approach, and we're big fans of Toukiden: The Age of Demons and semi-sequel Toukiden: Kiwami, so needless to say, we're looking forward to seeing more of the next release. Fortunately, we may not...
