Overview
Onechanbara Z2: Chaos is a hack-and-slash game developed by Tamsoft and is part of the zombie slasher series Onechanbara. Compared to the earlier Onechanbara games, Onechanbara Z2: Chaos is faster paced. Aya, Kagura, Saya, and Saki fight alongside each other in the game. You can switch between characters on the fly and set up two character combos called Cross Merge Combinations. All of the girls can temporarily transform by triggering a Dear Drive and to finally execute enemies you do a series of swipes using the PS4′s touch panel.
