Ni no Kuni II - Revenant Kingdom PlayStation 4 - Day One Edition

You do not need to play the first game in order to play Ni no Kuni 2. Ni no Kuni 2 only references small things here and there from the first game and the stories aren't linked at all. I still think you should play the first game since it was really good but it's not necessary in order to play the second. This game is so amazing and I love it! The first game was made by Level 5 in partnership with Studio Ghibli but the second one is not. You won't find Studio Ghibli's name anywhere on the box or in the game. Despite that, not much has changed with who is making the game because the producers approached a lot of the key members who worked on the first game directly and involved them directly with the creative team and process for Ni no Kuni 2.

Thank you !!

Beautiful story and game! It is very whimsical in some ways, and heartwrenching in others. Watching the characters grow and the plot progress was a joy. The gameplay mechanics are very fun, too. Love this game!

Escelente juego. Llegó muy rápido. Es un juego de ROL (RPG) de acción. Es decir, no tienes un Menú de opciones para Atacar y usar Magia. Con CUADRO son ataques leves y TRIANGULO son ataques fuertes. Hay combinaciones de botones para usar magia. Tiene todos los elementos de un juego RPG de consola. En tu equipo puedes usae 3 personajes y tu controlas a uno de ellos. Pero puedes cambiar de personaje en cualquier momento. También hay combates de ejercitos donde manejas hasta 4 escuadrones. Al Salir mapa completo los personajes cambian su perspectiva y se ven mas pequeños (Como los FUNKO) los combates no son al Azar, ves a los enemigos como en los juegos de ROL de Mario & Luigi o Paper Mario. Y puedes ver el nivel del enemigo antes de enfrentarlo. Excelente juego.

A mix between two of my all-time favorites, Star Ocean 2nd Wave and Suikoden. The battle system is fast paced but not just a button masher, with the harder battles you do need to pay attention and avoid getting killed. The characters are alright. LOTS of characters to recruit, but only a handful can be used in battles. The army battles are a bit repetitive, but provide some nice optional depth. The kingdom building is fairly canned, in that you have to follow the mandated design plan. But it is rewarding nonetheless. The crafting system is easy to figure out, and is dependent on upgrading your kingdom. The graphics are very colorful, sharp and clean. Very polished like playing a Hayao Miyazaki cartoon. All in all, a very good game. i've already invested close to 30 hours, and haven't finished the main storyline yet. But I love to complete all side quests and recruit all characters. If you aren't the kind to try and get all of the optional stuff, I feel you may find the game less rewarding.
