God Eater 2 was first released in Japan on September 13, 2012, exclusively for the PSP. Developed by Shift and published by Bandai Namco, the game takes place two years after the events of the first God Eater. Players are tasked with joining a new team of God Eaters, known as the "14th Unit," to combat the Aragami, monstrous creatures that threaten humanity's existence. The game introduced several improvements over its predecessor, including enhanced combat mechanics, a more expansive storyline, and the ability to create and customize your own God Eater.
