Our take on Toukiden: Kiwami
Rather than treating large enemies as targets for repeated attacks, the game makes their bodies part of the combat structure. Players must work through severing, piercing, and crushing specific sections, while collected spirits add equipment-based powers to the hunting loop.
What is Toukiden: Kiwami?
Toukiden: Kiwami is a hunting action game set in a world shaped by Japanese historical periods.
Players become Slayers who fight enormous Oni threatening humanity. Battles require targeting specific body parts and using blades or bows to sever, pierce, and crush them, with cooperation between Slayers supporting these encounters. Defeated Oni release Mitama, spirits that can inhabit weapons and grant special abilities. The game includes 300 Mitama, each with its own illustration and voice, for collection and equipment customization. Players begin as rookie Slayers in Utakata village, where veteran warriors provide guidance and training. Multiplayer supports groups of up to four players.
