Toukiden Kiwami

Toukiden Kiwami (討鬼伝 極, Tōkiden Kiwami; roughly translated as "Legend of the Demon Slayers Extreme") is the sequel to Toukiden. Its development has been implied since the first game has been sold to the Japanese public.

Kenichi Ogasawara is the general producer and Takashi Morinaka is the producer. They have both implied that this title has been tweaked with fan feedback and will add more content for hunting game fans to enjoy.

Preordering the first print rewards Souma and Reki parts. The Treasure Box edition includes a Tenko doll, an illustration book, an original soundtrack CD, and downloadable parts of the first cast of Slayers.

Plot
The protagonist's home and its habitants have been protected and remains peaceful from the last conflict. Three months pass, and a new threat emerges in Nakatsu Kuni. Forces from the north have fallen against the demons and now seek refuge at Utakata Village. The protagonist must work together with these different factions to fight against the giant demon swarm.

Gameplay
The general gameplay returns with the following known changes.
 * Actions for the protagonist have been tweaked. New weapons so far include: the naginata, spiked club, and rifle. Slayers can use a team attack called Onichigiri Kiwami (鬼千切・極) to destroy multiple demon parts in one hit.
 * New armor is available. Tenko will play a more active part, and the player will need to think harder on using items for their customizations.
