The original N3 didn’t astound gamers, but it did manage to capture a loyal following. Those of you Xbots looking for a sequel will soon get it – Spring 2010 in fact.

Konami announced today that N3II: Ninety-Nine Nights is coming exclusively to the Xbox 360 and will pick up the story and action immediately following where the original left off.

For those of you unfamiliar with the original game, N3II will feature combo-laden, battlefield action. Literally, hundreds of foes will attack your hero in waves, with stages culminating in “titanic” boss battles. N3II will also feature two-player online co-op.

Press Release:

El Segundo, CA – February 17, 2010 – Konami Digital Entertainment Inc., today announced it will publish N3II: Ninety-Nine Nights for Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft. This sequel, based on the all-action combat game Ninety-Nine Nights, will pick up the story where the original left off and take it to all new heights.

Set on a ravaged world, N3II: Ninety-Nine Nights invites the player to take on all comers in a series of spectacular battles. Players can enjoy the story from five different perspectives – including humans, elves and goblins – and are pitted against wave after wave of adversaries in the ultimate ‘last man standing’ free-for-all. Each of the species is given a specific back story which unfolds as the game progresses, while the various races also bring unique skills and abilities to the battle field.

At its heart, N3II: Ninety-Nine Nights is a vast combat title, with hundreds of enemy creatures on screen simultaneously. As the camera picks over the action, the player can use a wealth of easily-effected combo attacks to carve a path through the enemy, and also use whatever weapons and items come to hand. At the end of each skirmish, players will then face a ‘Titanic Boss Battle’ against the champion of their current adversary, with players forced to move quickly and locate the well hidden weak spots of these seemingly unstoppable behemoths.

N3II: Ninety-Nine Nights also has a stunning two-player co-op online mode, wherein players team up against the oncoming hordes, working together to expand their combo range to take out more enemy assailants at once. This two-player mode features online ranking boards detailing the most effective pairings across the globe.

N3II: Ninety-Nine Nights will be released in Spring 2010 and available for Xbox 360.
