    Yes, it is bigger than the original Toukiden. And it doesn’t look to shabby on the PS4. But one major problem remains: The core is nothing but an uninspired Monster Hunter clone.

    It's the only PS4 hunter game out, and very hard to put down! Although it does suffer from being too easy. 10/10 for me personally. I'm happyIt's the only PS4 hunter game out, and very hard to put down! Although it does suffer from being too easy. 10/10 for me personally. I'm happy that something like this has found its way to the PS4, but this genre isn't for everyone. I believe for the average gamer Toukiden would probably deserve a 7/10.

    The graphics are mediocre, whilst the game play - very addicting. Overall the game has a charm to it that can keep you hooked. Japanese voiced with English subs, this aids the mediocre storyline as they are voiced very well in their native language.

    Compared to Monster Hunter, Toukiden holds its own very well. Monster Hunter offers much more interesting combat though. MH is still king of the Hunter games, but if you lack the console to play the Monster Hunter series, Toukiden is a fantastic alternative. As for the future, if the Toukiden series could ramp up the difficulty, work on making the story more engaging and create more diverse game play then they could be king.... Toukiden definitely has the potential,

    Pros:
    Mimata grinding, accessible multiplayer, crafting, decent music and decent story, with tons of missions, giving the player lots of hours in gameplay.

    Cons:
    Repetitive monsters (some of the Oni are amazing but gets too many re-skins), easy gameplay (can be a good thing or a negative depending on the person playing), grindy (again - perspective), better alternative out there with MH if you have the right console.
