Devil Summoner 2: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abaddon is an action role-playing game developed and published by Atlus for the PlayStation 2. The game is the fourth in the Devil Summoner series which is a part of the larger Megami Tensei franchise and serves as the direct sequel to Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. the Soulless Army. It was released in Japan in October 2008 and in North America in May 2009. Gameplay is similar to that of the previous Raidou Kuzunoha game with some expansions and refinements. While traveling throughout Tsukudo-Cho and the neighboring towns Raidou and Gouto can investigate into the case by speaking with civilians and searching for clues or other items. The store at Konnou-Ya still exists as does the Gouma-Den. Upon entering the Dark Realm or other hostile environments Raidou will randomly engage in battles with demonic foes.
