Countdown reveals Yuusha sequel
Good job CVG! You guessed Sony's mysterious game correctly! A few days ago, a mysterious countdown appeared, featuring retro art reminiscent of the PSP exclusive Yuusha no Kuse ni Namaikida. Looks like the "or2" mysterious referenced on the site is the name for the sequel. The original Yuusha had players in a retro universe, taking down heroes with their minion horde. The sequel to this surprising cult hit promises more monsters and more heroes.
Senior producer Masami Yamamoto explained to Weekly Famitsu magazine (via 1UP). "A lot of gamers just wanted more to play with, so volume was the first thing. Also, since there were fewer stages in the first game, some of them had a challenge level that was far more of an uphill battle for the player than previous stages. With more stages at our disposal, we wanted to be sure we smoothed that over and gradually increased the challenge instead."

I wonder if there are any chances this game will come out of Japan or just stay there.

It usually takes a year to get stuff from Japan that was published by Sony there. So we've got probably 3 months before we know whether we get it or not.

I do hope . The response for the demo was pretty positive outside of Japan ...

Good news. I'm also glad they reconsidered the difficulty curve. The original gets too difficult very fast. I have a feeling this will be released outside of Japan.
