As you probably don't know , back in September Koei Tecmo said that Toukiden 2 would be released in both North America and Europe in early 2017, recently they narrowed down the date even further , stating that the action-rpg would be released outside of japan next spring. however they didn't mention what platforms it would be released on , while it released on the ps3 , ps4 and ps vita in japan , its safe to assume that the west wont be seeing a ps3 release . however , several sites are already arguing over this topic , some saying the vita won't be getting a western release and some saying the ps3 wont . personally i'm hoping for a vita release rather than a ps3 . the publisher stated that more info would be available in early 2017 .



Addintionly , the studio also released a batch of screenshots , as well as a new , original anime short film by Studio 4°C.Focusing on events that take place prior to the game, the anime short exemplifies not only the series’ lore, but also highlights some of the new characters who will join players on their journey.



The publisher also provided the following overview of the game:

The Toukiden series tells the tale of humanity’s last stand for survival against demonic, soul-devouring Oni. As revealed in Toukiden: The Age of Demons, humanity was protected for centuries by a secret clan of warriors, the Slayers, trained to dispose of the supernatural threat before it could consume the world. An event known as the Awakening caused rifts to appear in space and time – resurfacing places that had long disappeared from the world and unleashing swarms of Oni that relentlessly hunted humans .

Set shortly after the events detailed in Toukiden: Kiwami, Toukiden 2introduces an all-new, captivating narrative featuring a compelling cast of companions and more devious demons to defeat. Players will step into the shoes of a Slayer tasked with saving humankind by carrying out special quests to reduce the monstrous hordes and liberate Oni-infested areas. Toukiden 2boasts a vast and extensive open world full of danger and wonder, and takes the player deep into enemy territory. Slayers and Oni will battle it out in the Otherworld, a tormented battleground divided into six distinct Ages. Revisit the redesigned Ages of Yore, Grace, Honor, War, Peace and Chaos, each distinctively representing an era of Japanese history, and discover more about the Oni threat and your character’s unique role in its resolution!

In a nutshell . toukiden 2 is an open-world console based hunting action game .
So do you intend to play it? I sure will!
