Twice the city, twice the fun
Toylets, gravure photo shoots, cabaret clubs and more!
Brand new playable Majima chapters
NJPW wrestlers guest star in the clan creator once again
Brawler-style combat still feels great and there's little to keep you from feeling like a combat god early on

Best story in the franchise.
Addictive variety of side activities.
Unbelievably gorgeous visuals.
Immersive, loading-free environments.

Unfortunate change to an iconic cutscene.
Combat is good, but still not great.
Create A Clan is ambitious, but not amazing.
Majima side-story is too brief and too little.

story is short and not that interesting
the plot has a lot of filler content
camera is sometimes pointing in all the wrong places
simplistic enemy AI.

Nintendo Life
Still-stunning visuals with the Dragon Engine
Kamurocho and Sotenbori are packed with things to do
Excellent narrative and voice performances
Acrobatic melee combat never gets old
Upgrades are pleasingly streamlined
Goro Majima side campaign is a nice bonus

Dropping down to 30fps is jarring at first
Those who prefer multiple fighting styles may resent the streamlined combat

house.
The balance between drama, action, and humor is once again excellent.
The additional chapters of Majima continue to enrich the story.
If you didn't like Majima's omnipresence in Kiwami, congratulations

If you liked the combat styles in Kiwami, you will miss them.
The progression system is quite chaotic.

Fantastic story and characters are enhanced by modernization
Straightforward but dynamic combat rarely gets stale
Vibrant and atmospheric world that's wonderful to lose yourself in
Cabaret Club Grand Prix and Majima Construction Creator are substantial attractions

Majima Saga is disappointingly shallow

The localization of the texts in Spanish is excellent. Probably the best since SEGA's investment in our language.
Good port in the graphics that maintains the same technical level as the rest of the versions.
Kiwami 2 is one of the best remakes of the series: it is full of content and vibrates with its impactful main storyline.

We would have liked to see an additional novelty that would have added a little more weight to the arrival of this version.

Des visuels superbes grâce au Dragon Engine
Les villes de Kamurocho et Sotenbori, denses et vivantes
Une narrative excellente et des performances vocales de haut vol
Un combat à la fois acrobatique et profond
Une durée de vie monumentale grâce à une myriade d'activités
La campagne Majima en bonus

Le passage à 30 FPS est frappant après les autres opus en 60 FPS
Quelques problèmes de frame pacing et de menus en basse résolution
Le combat simplifié décevra ceux qui aimaient les styles multiples

Dual cities look great in this new engine
Seamlessly move between buildings
Better pacing and all-round story

Lengthy and varied campaign
Fantastic visuals with a great sense of humour throughout
Combat scenes are more brutal than ever
