Toukiden Fires Up Its Ambition With Some Samurai Warrior Spirits

Toukiden’s unique feature is found in its legendary hero spirits that will come to the aid of players as they purify the land of evil. And as part of Jump Fest 2014, the Vita/PSP action game is hooking up with Tecmo Koei’s other series, Samurai Warriors, to provide two new spirits for players to grab.

Well, that is, if you can somehow get the code that will be distributed at Makuhari Messe during the two-day event from the 21st to 22nd of December. If not, no worries—players can wait until January, when the spirits are released to the wider public for free on the PlayStation Store.

The two new spirits are Aya Gozen (above) and Ginchiyo Tachibana, from the Samurai Warriors and Nobunaga’s Ambition series. They’ll each grant new Mitama powers to your player. These Mitama’s give you bonuses to attributes such as power and healing, while also providing a set of special attacks. Aya, for instance, seems to be doing a powerful lightning attack while Tachibana has a repelling shield that fends off a giant Onmoraki beastie.

Toukiden is out now on PlayStation Vita and PSP in Japan. The game will be available in 2014 in North America and Europe for Vita.
