Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom

I can’t stress enough how much I enjoyed Ni no Kuni II. It’s one of the best JRPGs in years and it’s a must-buy for fans of the genre. It’s cute, thoroughly addictive and has more tweaks and statistics than you can shake a sword at. If you enjoyed the first game, you will love this.

Ni No Kuni II is a machine that runs on beauty, fun and delight. With simple storylines and engaging characters, it weaves a narrative that captures the optimistic nature of childhood, without forgetting to deliver deep RPG mechanics. Utterly abandoning many of the confounding elements of the original title, Ni No Kuni II marches to its own quirky beat. This is a game that will be remembered as a ...

In a world far removed from ours, Grimalkin and Mousekind live together in less than harmony right alongside more fantastical beast folk. Much like our own, these factions don’t always see eye-to-eye and engage in their own political dealings. Sometimes it takes an outsider to bring about a great change to the land, and in another world where magicks are as commonplace as technology, some big chan...

An ambitious, beautiful JRPG that keeps on giving.

Ni no Kuni II is easily one of the best RPGs on the PS4 and PC. A masterpiece that needs to be played by everyone, regardless if you like RPGs or not.

Ni No Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom may be vastly different, but it’s ruddy marvellous! Its many systems sure are intimidating at first, but things click into place very quickly, and there’s a lot to do in this gorgeous and well-crafted game. They say that it’s difficult to recapture the magic, but this is one more Level-5 game that has become essential. They may have moved on from Studio Ghibli’s tut...

Thanks to its heartwarming characters, whimsical soundtrack, and gorgeous visuals that are simply a treat to look at, there is much to appreciate in this sequel.

Overall, the game is extremely enjoyable and addicting.  The story is fantastic and the general gameplay mechanics just work.  I have a hard time finding anything wrong with the game. It has its flaws, as every game does, but it’s very small things that most people wouldn’t care about.  If you were a fan of Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch, or JRPG’s in general, you will not be disappointed wi...

At this point the PlayStation 4 is home to many quality role-playing games. From the serious tones of The Witcher 3 and the violence of Bloodborne to the eye-popping style of Persona 5 and the majesty of Horizon: Zero Dawn, there's something for just about everyone. However, very few titles can measure up to the sheer charm that's on display in Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom, a game that revels i...

Ni no Kuni II attempts to offer something for everyone, and while not all of those pieces fit perfectly, things do total up to a net positive. Take a look at how the game comes together and see if this charming adventure might be for you.

While the likelihood of a roast chicken springing to life and leading a mutiny against you is thankfully slim, Ni No Kuni‘s protagonist Evan – a descendant of cat royalty – is embarrassingly usurped as king of Ding Dong Dell by a band of rebel rats.

Ni No Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom intensifies the action in its JRPG foundation, mirroring some of Level-5’s best work instead of leaning more heavily on the charm of Studio Ghibli. It’s resulted in a game I continue to enjoy a great deal and a desire for Level-5 to distance itself even further from the animation giant to get a peek at what the developer can do, again, when completely uninhibited in...
