Koei Tecmo has just released a slew of new information on their next entry in the Toukiden series, Toukiden: Kiwami. Toukiden: Kiwami starts three months after the previous game and sees upgrades in every aspect. Plenty of new characters, new weapons and an increased number of Mitamas, from 200 to 300. If you missed out on the previous title, Mitamas are, as described in the press release:
“Mitama are the freed souls of fallen heroes who remain to assist the slayers in their fight. The souls can be equipped by the player and their powers can be upgraded up to 12 levels (two more than in ‘the Age of Demons’). Fully levelling up a Mitama gives access to extra boosts and powers that will help the player survive through the challenges of the treacherous hunts.“
Check out some gameplay footage below of the new weapons, Mitamas and characters.

Soma: The captain of the ‘Hundred Demo Cropsâ€
