Clearly KT realised that flying about with the Kusarigama was the superior option and decided to enlighten everyone using the other, lesser weapons.

It looks glorious. I feel I'm going to spend hundred of hours exploring that forest and all the environments in this game. I hope that Vita version looks as good as in the first one - Omega Force are great on making great looking Vita games.
Looks fantastic!
I said after playing the first game on Vita that i would really love for Tecmo-Koei to make a real JRPG with the artstyle and combat system of Toukiden.
When i heard that 2 will be open world, i already hoped that it might go a bit more in that direction. Those screenshots further fuel my hype.
I'm pretty sure that it will still be a Hunting game at heart, but i hope they do add a lot of typical RPG stuff (Quests, a bit more story etc...)

I saw scans.
It's more than Kusarigama.. you can drag down monsters too. Also this allows you to vanish the ghost body parts for good.

I can't wait to see more, i'm not really a fan of the genre(even if i have played and finished some games) but i like how it looks.
Toukiden Kiwami on vita looked like this(in-game):
this(bullshot)
obviously looks better but if on vita graphics will be similar to Kiwami i really don't see the problem
it's not unrealistic to think that those screens are ps4 shot , not vita shots.
the leap Vita / PS4 was already obvious with kiwami , you only have to imagine the gap between the 2 version to be bigger.

I am definitely of the opinion that Toukiden doesn't get the credit it deserves for its art. Both the character and environment art was just so good.
Really hoping they nail the open world thing on the Vita version. Not that it'll push more devs to do open world games, but I'd be happy to see it working handsomely.
Also, the new NPC girls are cute~
"Vanish for good" = break and purify at once? Or is it something new?

Ghostly parts after purification can be removed completely, so if you remove legs for good boss won't be able to walk anymore.
I meant a ps4 bullshot, the first toukiden on vita had some bullshot, so i wouldn't be surprised if these screens are bullshots too.

This could awesome if done well, and really add to the dynamism of the fights.
Sounds like KT are getting really ambitious with the game, which makes me all warm and tingly.
Thx! Looks good and I have heard it could play better than the first, which I didn't like that much

Bosses already get kind of easy once parts start breaking
Every battle starts off like climbing a hill until the first piece gets knocked off then its a damn bloodbath lol
Fucking love Toukiden
I'm hoping they don't lock Mitama leveling behind single player campaign in a genre made for multiplayer (AGAIN)
Also hoping they make the game harder. Playing with a friend or two means you're never, ever in danger of failing a mission. I need some Monster Hunter difficulty tbh or else it just gets boring.

Holy shit.
Can't wait to tear away the wings of a Blade/Frostwing, lol. "HA HA!" now, you pos.

I just saw what you are talking about...holy shit. It looks so badass.
Just saw the full scan, apparently there is a new mechanic called "Oni's hand", Not sure what is it yet, but the picture there kind of remind me of Freedom War's thorn. It was there in the announcement trailer too.

If it doesn't I won't buy it. I'm pretty sure it should tho. It would be a death sentence if it didnt t. They might as well not even release over here in the west.

It's for the PS4, 3, and Vita.

Will buy as soon as it's released over here.
Is the PC port for Kiwami really that terrible?
I played Toukiden on my Vita and really liked it. Maybe I should just buy two copies of Kiwami for PS4 for my son and I to play together. What extra content was there over Toukiden?

If there wasn't a Vita version there wouldn't be a Toukiden 2.
So that's the new weapon, huh.
I think I see a blade on the inside of the shield, possibly a circle button special attack?
It's essentially the base game with an expansion.
3 new chapters ~ Chapters 1-8 cover 'The Age o Demons' storyline and chapters 9-11 cover the 'Kiwami' storyline. There's also a chapter after that but it's more like an endless mode.
3 new weapons (rifle, spiked club, naginata*)
and a lot more armor sets.

too late to play original on PS4?

definitely going to play this.
The online was dead from the get go in Kiwami but it's a decent game.

Looks great! (And it's funny that somebody posted Omega Force's Attack on Titan game as an example of what it could look like because it sure does look like this is using that variant of their toolbox, with different shading/texturing. Toukiden 2's teaser trailer seems to indicate that Gwen might even have some grapplehook-like ability similar to maneuver gear, and the Hero is seen in screens vaulting above the treetops. The Vita version of AoT appeared to run just fine in the C3 2016 show clip, so hopefully the same goes for Toukiden 2 and they manage to keep graphic detail/draw distance high for the portable version.)
I didn't get into the first Toukiden much (played the PSP demo, of all things, but didn't buy the Vita game,) but I'm glad for its success and I may well get sucked into the sequel. It sounds quite ambitious, and the engine they're using seems plenty capable of wowwing on PS4 even if it's got to share with the lesser Vita and PS3 hardware. Looking forward to a trailer sometime down the line.

I have a PS4 copy of the first Toukiden I've yet to play, but this looks incredible.
It's exactly like the PS4 version, locked framerate and all. For most people that means it's an unplayable, downright broken port.
PC doesn't have cross-play like PS4 and Vita do, though.

This one will take a while to come out, and it would be nice to know the story before then.
Online is probably dead as already mentioned, bu the NPCs are super competent to help you around.

Looking real good,I would normally go for a PC version,but as they screwed the original port on Steam I'll jump in on Ps4.Can't wait

This looks so good but I'm gonna have to see how it plays. These sorts of games are devoid of plot AFAIK, so if it doesn't feel fun it won't be worth the money.
Still, it does look as if they put a lot of work into it.

Very steampunky but I guess I shouldn't be surprised, given how time works in the series.
Really cool. I love the character designs. I hope the cutscenes will look great like the first games.
