Free-to-Play Version of "Toukiden 2" Heads to the West Later This Month

If you've been looking for a way to get into Toukiden 2 without throwing down the full asking price, Koei Tecmo has a solution. Toukiden 2: Free Alliances is a free-to-play version that's set to hit PS4 and PS Vita in North America on May 30 and Europe on May 31, offering up a straightforward entry point that includes stamina-replenishing micro-transactions and the ability to transfer save data to the full version.

 

Stamina is essentially what players will use to play for free, with each unit spent replenishing after eight actual hours. Purchasing Gems is the easiest way to both get your stamina back and raise your overall stamina level, or you can just wait until you're clear to play again.
