Sengoku Basara 2

戦国BASARA2 Sengoku BASARA 2 is the sequel to the first Sengoku BASARA game first released by Capcom for the PlayStation 2 on 27 July 2006. When its expansion game Sengoku BASARA 2 Heroes was released for PlayStation 2 and Wii in 2007, the Wii version is packed with the version port of this game.

Sengoku Drive

Upon getting 100 kills, the player gains one level of the Sengoku Drive is added to stock (max. 3; though current capacity is dependent of character level). When there is at least 1 level of the Sengoku Drive, the character can enter the drive state. While in that state, the character glows yellow (redder if a higher level of drive) and his/her attack and (with the exception of Nōhime’s) attack speed increases. However, attack speed of skills are not affected. The character also cannot be staggered (except by a Basara attack) and cannot be KO’ed (at least 1 point of life will remain after and during enemy comboes). Activating Sengoku Drive at higher levels makes the character stay in that state longer.

It should be noted however, that the AI characters can also enter this state. Rather than having to defeat 100 enemies, a bar will fill up whenever that character is attacked by the player (the rate depends on the difficulty) and will start to gradually fill up after taking enough damage, and will enter level 1 drive state when it is full. The AI gains all effects of the drive state except not being KO’ed.

Basara Fever

Everytime the player performs 500 hits in a combo, he/she triggers Basara Fever. When this occurs, the player is awarded an item box and the character enters level 1 drive state. This drive does not use up the Sengoku Drive in stock. Basara Fever is also part of getting some title fans.
