Yo-Kai Watch 2 Reviews
Yo-kai Watch 2: Bony Spirits is, at its stronger parts, a fantastic game about being young, curious, and free - a pleasant feeling most either feel or miss from their childhood days. Mixed with this is a huge feeling of impatience, fed by terrible gameplay choices to extend playtime during some of the worst sections of the game, which makes this sometimes feel like it is overstaying its welcome. Overall, it is a good catch 'em all game, but it is rough around the edges.
Welcome back, Yo-Kai! The brand new sequel does still offer a different experience for those loving Pokémon, but with a simpler gameplay and battle mode. Collecting all the monsters and exploring the entire world is anyway a big challenge that everyone who loved the first episode will definitely enjoy!

There is no doubt that Yo-Kai Watch 2 is a fun game that will put a smile on the face of children and adults alike.
Yo-Kai Watch 2 is everything a sequel should be. Bony Spirits/Fleshy Souls improves upon the original Yo-Kai Watch in every way, giving players yet another refreshing catch-em-all game with a unique story, plenty of fun new Yo-Kai, and a ton of new quality content.
Yo-Kai Watch 2 Fleshy Souls is a decent game and the graphics are great but if you’re looking for a single player experience I recommend you get a different game as this game can get very boring and the story isn’t great.
Quirky as ever, Yo-kai Watch 2 is more iterative in approach than revolutionary, coming packed with the same charming character and wacky moments that many came to love in the first game. The wider world and multiplayer aspects are the key successes, but LEVEL-5 needs to be more daring to make the next adventure stand out.
All-in-all the game really felt more like an expansion rather than a sequel and yet this is not to say that it is a bad thing. If you really enjoyed the first Yo-Kai Watch then you'll definitely enjoy this one.
