New promotion movie for “Utawarerumono: Itsuwari no Kamen” features battle animations

Aquaplus has published a new promotional video for the upcoming second entry in the Utawarerumono series. It’s roughly 4 minutes in length and provides quick shots of the story part of the game, giving a general look at the theme and character sprites. The parts are connected with short character introductions and previews of the 3d battlefield animations.  The movie is available at their Youtube channel here.

It also has a little extra at the end, where Kurou, a character in the original game, makes his appearance. As of right now it’s unknown how the two Utawarerumono games are connected but with his appearance the likelihood has surely increased.

Also, be sure to take a look at the official site if you want to have another look at the characters.
