For those unfamiliar, there’s always something awesome about the Tokyo Game Show. We learn about extremely amazing and highly anticipated titles that are going to be slowly coming across the pond later down the road. Many of these titles have captured the attention of a lot of people. One of these in particular is TOUKIDEN KUWAMI, which is a predecessor to the smash hit TOUKIDEN: The Age of Demons.
With many of these titles finding their way out the door in Japan in the near future. As the days move on, we hope to hear more about these since a lot of the information we’ve been given is related to the Japan releases and does not reflect a North America or Europe set of release dates. Below we’ve supplied the official information presented to us by KOEI TECMO America and can only wait to see what happens regarding these titles.
