posted on by Crystalyn Hodgkins
Level 5 announced on Saturday that it is developing the Yo-kai Watch Busters 2: Hihō Densetsu Banbaraya sequel game for the Nintendo 3DS that will ship in Japan in winter 2017. The new action role-playing game will take place on "Karakuri Island." The island is where pirate king's treasure is buried.
The original Yo-kai Watch Busters game shipped in Japan in two versions (Akaneko-dan and Shiroinu-tai) for the Nintendo 3DS in July 2015. The Yo-kai Watch 3: Sukiyaki game, which shipped in December 2016, also included a "Busters Treasure" mode featuring the characters.
The Yo-kai Watch Busters spinoff game allows up to four players to cooperate in battling boss Yo-kai. Players are given case assignments from Commanding Officer Bree, after which they can explore the town, recruit Yo-kai, and fight the big boss behind the case.
Atsushi Ohba launched a manga based on the game in Coro Coro Comics in May 2015, and ended the manga in August 2015.
The Yo-kai Watch anime entered a "Busters" arc in July. The arc features the characters T-Jibanyan and T-Komasan.
