The follow-up to last year's Patapon, this game has you once again leading the Patapons through a series of battles against the opposing army and gigantic monsters in an unfamiliar land. You will utilize drumbeats to march, attack, and defend and lead the Patapon tribe to victory. The game features more missions, and new characters including bird riders, robots and magicians. There is also a new Patapon Hero who is a prized fighter that you can customize to fit any sort of fighting style, as well as a multiplayer mode and seven music-based mini games.
