About Toukiden: Kiwami
Toukiden: Kiwami is an action hunting title where you play as a Slayer with unique abilities, battling massive Oni using a three‑step Targeted Destruction System. The game blends single‑player and up‑to‑four‑player co‑op, letting you combine blade or bow attacks to sever, pierce, then crush enemy parts.
Defeated Oni release Mitama spirits that can inhabit weapons, granting special powers. Over 300 illustrated Mitama are collectible, and the story unfolds in a world separated from normal time, featuring zones inspired by ancient Japan through the early Shogunate.
01 / THE GUIDE
Targeted Destruction System
Combat revolves around three distinct actions: sever a limb, pierce the exposed area, and crush it. This sequence is required because many Oni are far larger than a human and cannot be defeated by simple damage.
Both blade and bow can be employed during the sequence, and cooperation between Slayers improves the chance of completing each step efficiently.
- Coordinate the three steps with teammates before engaging a large Oni.
- Switch between blade and bow to match the current phase of the sequence.
02 / THE GUIDE
Mitama Spirits
When an Oni falls, it releases captured spirits called Mitama. These spirits can take residence in weapons, unlocking special powers for the Slayer in subsequent battles.
The game features roughly 300 Mitama, each with its own illustration and voice line, providing a collectible element tied directly to combat abilities.
- Equip different Mitama after each battle to test new powers.
- Track collected illustrations to monitor progress.

Areas visited display characteristics of periods ranging from ancient Japan to the early Shogunate, giving each battle a distinct visual backdrop.

The game offers both gamepad and keyboard‑only options, letting groups choose their preferred input method without timed input constraints.
