Fist of the North Star started as a manga which began being serialized in 1983 in Weekly Shonen Jump. The series has spawned many memorable quotes that are still popular today, such as “You are already dead.”, and “Of this life...I have not a single regret!”. In 2009, the popular series Warriors collaborated with Fist of the North Star and began
development on the first game in the Fist of the North Star: Ken’s Rage series, which was released in March 2010. Because the game received attention from both Warriors fans and Fist of the North Star fans, the game went on to sell more than 600,000 copies in Japan.
Fist of the North Star: Ken’s Rage 2 features a revamped battle system as well as multiple game modes, including Legend Mode and Dream Mode. Legend Mode is a story mode which spans the first half of the manga
series including the Raoh arc, Holy Emperor arc, and the Shura Country arc. Dream Mode is an original story mode where scenarios are completed and unlocked by playing as different characters. This mode can also be played online with other players. The game also features several new playable characters including Bat and Ein.
For those who have been itching for a fresh, exhilarating beat ‘em up game, as well as for those who are already fans of the series, don’t miss this game!
