Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom is a role-playing video game developed by Level-5 and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. It is scheduled to release for Microsoft Windows and PlayStation 4 in 2017. The game is a sequel to Ni no Kuni: Dominion of the Dark Djinn and Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch.
Players control Evan Pettiwhisker Tildrum, a boy king who is usurped from his castle, and sets out to reclaim his kingdom. The game is played from a third-person perspective and its world is navigated on foot. While players navigate Evan throughout the game's world, other characters can be controlled during battles against enemies; during these battles, players use magic abilities and elemental creatures known as "Higgledies", which can be used to conjure spells.
Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom is a role-playing game that uses a third-person perspective. Players complete quests—linear scenarios with set objectives—to progress through the story. Outside of quests, players can freely roam the overworld of Ni no Kuni. Players explore towns, villages, dungeons and dangerous places scattered throughout the world. Upon leaving a location, players enter the World Map, which can be used to select a destination; the World Map represents a diarama, and the characters resemble a chibi design.
When players encounter enemies, they enter a battle system. Battles take place on an open battlefield, allowing players to freely roam around the area. During battles, players command a single human ally; all characters are manually moved around the battlefield. To fight enemies, players use melee attacks, magical abilities and "Higgledies". Higgledies are "spirits of hearts" which exist in several forms, and may represent elements. Players also use Higgledies to reach far areas, and to clear and explore dungeons.
