Once again showcasing the series? trademark high-flying, clothes-ripping battle mechanics, SENRAN KAGURA 2: Deep Crimson follows the events of SENRAN KAGURA Burst, sending all 12 of the original cast members on another supernatural martial arts adventure through modern Japan. For the first time in the series, shinobi can fight in pairs, covering each other’s backs and combining special techniques as needed, or fight alone to give their partners time to recover after bouts of intense combat. One player can control both team members, switching back and forth at will, or two players can fight side by side in local or online co-op mode.

Media outlets have started getting their hands on Super Mario Maker, and new details about the game are starting to trickle in. Further information about online level sharing has been found from the instruction manual.

Initially, players will only be able to upload ten courses. But this number can be increased if enough users “like” your courses. The manual also states that unpopular courses will be deleted after a certain period of time. Additionally, sound effects that have been recorded will be replaced with a generic parrot’s squawk.
