- In the character editor, you can edit name, gender, hair, face (contours, eyebrows, eyes, nose, and mouth), ornaments, body, voice, and weapons. View a few images here.
- New character Queen will be voiced by Shoko Nakagawa.
- It’s good to have save data from Toukiden: Age of Demons or Toukiden Kiwami. There is no equipment transferring, though.
- The strength of demons is less than after the Kiwami update. Both the story mode and multiplayer mode degrees of difficulty are being regulated, the former so that it doesn’t disrupt the story. Powerful demons and such are being prepared for the game’s end content.
- Some sort of Tenko feature will certainly be put in.
- You’ll mingle with characters from the previous game every now and then.
- There will be purification ceremonies.
- You can broadcast sound on PS4 this time.
- Thee will be six areas each with different features. Scenery from the previous game, such as castles, will also appear.
- Studio 4C will make a promotion anime and manga for Toukiden 2. The manga will begin in the June 27-launched issue of Dengeki Maou. Illustration is by Tousen, Yuu Hijikata, and Yoshiada Tsutsumi.
