Bandai Namco is bringing over Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom to the Nintendo Switch, with the port set to arrive two years after the release of the first game, Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch, on the system. Given the subtitle of "Prince's Edition", this version of Ni no Kuni II will bundle together its previous DLC and updates, including The Lair of the Lost Lord and Tale of a Timeless Tome. Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom - Prince's Edition will be available in both Europe and North America on September 17th, for the full retail price of $59.99, in digital and physical format.

Awesome! The original Ni no Kuni on the Switch was a blast to play. Both games are like playing a Studio Ghibli anime as opposed to simply watching one.

Ni No Kuni 2 sadly isn't as good as the first one anymore. They got rid of the whole pet system and what's left is just a maybe 7/10 JRPG.

I'm still waiting for the Xbox one versions ;-;

I've played NNK 1 and 2 on PS3 and PS4, lovely games but I agree with wurst, first one is still better then the 2nd one.

The second one is not as good as the original. It throws out the battle system and the familiar system turns into tales of style combat. The characters are pretty meh too.

I got it on PC and found it wasn't my cup of tea.

Love Nino Kuni, I hope this one is the same or better

 

[proffk]

The worst part of the 2nd one are the rubbish skirmishes & forced grinding.

 

[BlazeMasterBM]

ok I guess that's pretty cool

 

[_abysswalker_]

Good news indeed. Ni no kuni is one of the best games I've played on Switch. What an adventure that was!

 

[Panzerfaust]

Rage quit the first one. Hated the battle system.

NNK 2 was way better

 

[Deleted member 532471]

oh dear god, yes.
finally!!

the closest we'll ever get to playing yokai watch 4 with doug bowser's NoA

Ni No Kuni on Switch? Not if I have anything to say about it!

Exactly, Ni no Kuni II isn't bad exactly, but far less unique and magical than the original. It's kind of like Tales, but worse. Also kind of crazy that it's releasing this late on Switch, but still at a full $60 when it's gone as low as $9 on PSN. The price of Bandai Namco releases usually falls pretty quickly regardless, so you probably needn't wait long to get it at a fairer value.

You're probably one of one people in the world who are of this opinion. The companion/pet system was what made the first one great. NNK2 was just a meh JRPG. OK to play, but not a must-have by any means.

Now you got me interested.

And now you got me worried, but Tales man. I'm a sucker for that.

Same for me. I don't know if I like the battle system much in the first one.

The thing is if I want Tales of I play Tales of Vesperia or Abyss. I don't buy ni no kuni 2 to have a tales of experience I bought it hoping for a Ni No Kuni experience. Also NNK2 has too many side activities that slow the pace of the story too much for my taste.

This game is pretty decent, all things considered; definitely not a must-buy or spectacular (it's no Persona 5 Royal or Xenoblade Chronicles, or Final Fantasy XII), but I did have fun with it.
Definitely a 7/10 or thereabouts; quite good, but not stellar. It's certainly a better choice than a certain unwanted, miserable sequel to a previously-standalone zombie-apocalypse game on the PS4; don't waste your money on that, spend it on this instead if you actually want a fun and enjoyable time.
