Toukiden 2 may still be a bit repetitive and falter in certain story elements but features a highly refined and fast paced combat system that will be a delight to anyone looking for a hunting game.

Toukiden 2 is a great leap towards a much-needed evolution, and it dares to add new things and challenge tradition. Hunting games usually get an enhanced edition that adds all kinds of stuff and I eagerly await what Omega Force will bring on next time around. In the mean time, I’m gonna play more of this game for a few dozen more hours.

Toukiden 2 is an action/RPG game that tells the tale of humanity’s last stand for survival against demonic, soul-devouring Oni.

Toukiden 2 is a great example of “it it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”. The core of the game comes from Toukiden: Kiwami and receives a good dose of polish, and Koei Tecmo added just enough new material. It’s another solid entry in the series and probably your best bet for a demon-hunting experience on current gen consoles. Though at times it can be monotonous and tedious, it allows the player to truly variate the gameplay. It doesn’t hold your hand or spoon feed you, and that’s always nice. With Toukiden 2, it’s good to be a Slayer again.

There is plenty here to entertain the casual players to the hardcore fans of monster hunting series. With a well built world and story driven characters you'll always be wanting to fight just one more monster, on your own or with a party of friends.

Toukiden 2 will likely be swept away in the hubbub of larger AAA releases. But if you’re a fan of this style of Action RPG, do yourself a favor and check it out. There’s even a decent online co-op for up to four people where you can rove the world and hunt Oni together. It’s a fun and solid Action RPG, and the best Monster Hunter clone we’ve seen yet.

Toukiden 2 can get repetitive at times with battles that go on way too long but it's still a fun monster hunting game that fans of that genre should be able to enjoy.

7/10

Toukiden 2 is a title that appeals greatly to fans of the genre. If you’re already into hunting RPGs, you don’t want to miss this one. If you’ve never dabbled, I’d say this is a great place to start. If you’re a gamer like me, though, who’s less into open worlds and more into plot focus, this may not be the title for you. Personal tastes would lead me to a lower score here, but it’s impossible to ignore that this is a solid game with decent presentation.

The sequel to Koei Tecmo's medieval Japanese monster hunting game is finally here so grab your demon hand and let's fight some oni.

Toukiden 2 elevates the series with new gameplay features and an open-world setting that makes the game feel more cohesive and different to other titles in the genre. It manages to keep intact the best traits of its predecessors like an interesting lore, well-defined characters and a complex battle system, while also adding elements that improve the overall result. However, the lackluster graphics will reduce its mainstream appeal.

7/10

Toukiden 2 is packed with so much content that you can enjoy by yourself or with four other friends. The crafting is simple enough for anyone to get into and taking down a giant Oni can be incredibly satisfying. It’s just a shame that for everything good Toukiden 2 does, there is always something holding it back.

Giant demons, fast paced battles, and RPG elements, all taking place in Feudal Japan? What more could a gamer ask for in Toukiden 2? This JRPG had a lot to live up to in my mind. After seeing an innumerable amount of trailers showcasing a diverse range of gameplay aspects. After playing Toukiden 2, it felt as though the game was coasting on the popularity of another well-known Japanese gaming series – Monster Hunter. Of course not a complete carbon copy, Toukiden 2 does its best to stand ou...
