XSEED confirms Senran Kagura 2: Deep Crimson for the 3DS

The Senran Kagura series is fun, kinda creepy but also pretty popular which is why XSEED Games keeps finding reasons to bring over various versions to North America.

The latest in the series, Senran Kagura 2: Deep Crimson for the Nintendo 3DS, is a 2.5D side-scrolling beat-em-up and is officially set to hit the eShop and retail sometime this summer. The retail ?Double D? release will be a limited run which will include bonus items such as a 2-disc game soundtrack.

SENRAN KAGURA 2 screens:

The naughty yet very nice ninja girls of the SENRAN KAGURA universe return to the Nintendo 3DS in a fresh, new 2.5D side-scrolling brawler. Featuring 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 or 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 co-op mode.

Developed by Marvelous Inc. and Tamsoft, SENRAN KAGURA 2: Deep Crimson will launch this summer in North America exclusively on the Nintendo 3DS both as a digital release via the Nintendo eShop as well as in a limited run ?Double D? retail release which will include a two-disc soundtrack. This title has not yet been rated by the ESRB.

Marvelous Europe will be publishing the title in Europe digitally on Nintendo eShop, and have also unveiled an exclusive pre-order campaign for people who?d prefer a physical copy. The publisher is offering various packages, including special limited edition versions, which will be sold exclusively through Marvelous Europe?s dedicated site.
