“Senran Kagura 2: Crimson” seems to be the next Senran Kagura game
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments
Marvelous AQL will be announcing a new Senran Kagura game next week during the “Senran Kagura Bakunyuu Hyper Presentation 2014”. But due to an accidental leak, it seems as though the mystery project has already been outed.
Marvelous AQL mentioned on the official NicoNico streaming page that the company will be giving away three copies of Senran Kagura Burst. Right after this, a note (since removed) mentioned how the game will include the first print bonuses, so players should keep playing it until “Senran Kagura 2: Crimson” is released.
So come next week, we should be hearing about the next core entry in the Senran Kagura series.
