Idea Factory announced during the latest New Game Plus Expo (NGPX) Showcase that the musou action RPG Dusk Diver 2 will be ported to PlayStation 4 and 5 as well as Nintendo Switch this summer. Catch the announcement trailer below. The hack and slash combat is looking smooth.

Here’s the synopsis and feature summary per the press release. Taipei’s an underrepresented setting in games, so that’s definitely caught my eye.

Dusk Diver 2 continues the story of Yumo and her friends, taking up arms once again to protect
the Human Realm from dimensional evils that are converging on Taipei’s bustling Ximending
neighborhood and its dark underworld, Youshanding. Who can Yumo and the Guardians of
Kunlun trust? What consequences of their past will they face? Fight to find the truth and save
the city once again!

Unruly Attack Combinations – Seamlessly switch between four characters in combat,
each with their own movesets and strengths. Combine different support skills to keep the
enemies on their toes and your combo count high!
New Adventures – Explore the virtually recreated neighborhood of Ximending in Taipei,
Taiwan, sightsee and grab a bite to eat for stat boosts before battle – just watch out for
the Possessed and dimensional fissures…
Play to Your Style! – Tailor your equipment, skills and Orb combinations to suit your
playstyle!

Dusk Diver 2 Screenshots

IFI released all new screenshots in three flavors: PS4, PS5, and Switch. While they appear to be duplicates, we’re posting them side by side below so you can compare, along with some other general images. Spoilers: The PS5 version looks the best.

Visit the website for more details. Dusk Diver 2 has had a very positive reception over on Steam, so there’s a good chance that the console release will fare just as well. You can preorder the $49.99 USD launch edition over at Idea Factory’s online store (no indication of a standard edition yet as of this writing).
