“Initial Ⅱ” speaks of a tale on a continent with super powers. With burdens of dangerous missions, 3 Iudex Soldiers of Philosophia Academy set foot to the realm of their decade-long enemy, Scientia Empire. In this game, you will play as one of the captains of Iudex Soldiers, fight side by side with the other 2 companions and reveal the mysterious secret hidden by both sides for decade. We increased our team from 5 developers to 9 and sought for help from more friends to offer a better game.Up to ten chapters stories and levels, with full audio in both English and JapaneseTo perform a more delicate storytelling, we present the story with 10 chapters, 30+ real-time rendering Cutscenes. More than 20 voice actors participated in dubbing. Japanese dubbing is led by Kugimiya Rie and Uchida Maaya. English dubbing is led by Kira Buckland (“Nier: Automata” 2B) and Christine marie Cabanos (“Dead or Alive” Marie Rose).Dynamically switch between 4 different weapons at your willThe Heroine Belvia wields 4 high-tech combat weapons: Blade, GreatSword, Bow and Gauntlet. Experience the gorgeous battle style of Iudex Soldiers which includes dynamic weapon change, combat action derivation, the ultimate skill, spells and full combat audio. We believe all these combined will present our players a better fighting experience.Dozens kinds of enemies and more than 10 stimulating BOSS fights.Abundant enemy types and AI, bring more challenges to the combat. More than 10 unique BOSS fights, includes the killing machines and the most powerful Four Generals of Empire. Players can either play in the simple level and fight aside with AI companions or face all kinds of badass alone in high difficulty.Superior MusicAll the in-game music is crafted by our friends, CyberJoker (Japan) and StrawberryHilMusic (United States). They co-operate to bring us dozens of BGM and invited the famous music producers, KevinPenkin and RajRamayya to bring 3 songs to the game which vocals by Mika Kobayashi, Emi Evans (singer of the theme in “Nier: Automata”), Christina Vee respectively.

Initial 2: New Stage reviews and comments

Initial 2: New Stage takes place in the same universe as the first game, but it’s not a direct sequel, since only two bad guys from The Initial appears - Kyuya and Ryuzaki - and their role in the storyline are different. This time, the game got English dub. The voices are nice, but the repeated lines during the fights get annoying fast. The story mode is longer than The Initial. The first game took me around 2.5 hours to complete. This game is a good 5 hours. The English text is… often very funny and the text warping in the boxes is off most of the time. So, if you are looking for a “perfect English” game, with a deep plot and character development, Initial 2: New Stage won’t meet that expectation. It’s rather a nice and casual hack’n’slash with two cute heroines - Belvia and Sera - plus Veritas. I think Sera’s habit of talking in the third person all the time is kind-of annoying. Anyway, I recommend it with a 50% discount, since its short.
