. The Story
The story of the Patapon tribe marches forth as they continue
their hunt for the mysterious land of 'Earthend.' This time,
after taking to sea to find the fabled realm of their ancient
ancestors, they are shipwrecked on a new and strange continent
and are depending on you, their god, to lead them safely through
this perilous new land. As you guide the tribe through this new
world using specific rhythmic commands tapped out on your
mystical drum via the PSP's face buttons and equip your troops
with weapons and armor, you will come face to face with a new
tribe of enemies-the Karmen, encounter a mysterious and mighty
Hero Patapon and uncover the ruins of Patapolis, a mystical place
long spoke of in Patapon legend.
Multiplayer
One of the most exciting new elements of Patapon 2 is its
inclusion of multiplayer via a PSP ad-hoc connection. Supporting
up to four players, this play option actually consists of two
modes containing a link to the single player campaign. During
multiplayer action all players assume the role of the Hero
Patapon, but are not limited to a single form. Players' Hero
Patapons are fully customizable, able to take the shape of any of
the Patapon warrior classes, and allowing players to show off
their distinct, one-of-a-kind heroes to the world.
Working together, players embark on a series of mission of
increasing difficulty, designed to test their skills as
individual warriors as well as team players. But even the most
powerful of Patapon Heroes who venture into this online adventure
will find that he/she needs something extra to carry the day. In
a nod to the Karmen, the tribes' new enemy in Patapon 2, here
players will ultimately have to don a ceremonial to obtain
the strength to survive and succeed. But to secure a players
will need to have obtained a certain item during their time spent
playing through the game's single player campaign. Once produced
players will have to work together to transform this item into
the .

Improved 'Fever Mode' Functionality
Patapon 2 features new and improved 'Fever Mode' functionality.
Fever Mode is a state in the game reached when players have
successfully completed a certain number of consecutive combos,
effectively ratcheting up their Patapons' fighting ability and
efficiency in battle for as long as they continue adding
successive combos. In the original Patapon, activating and
maintaining this mode provided an ever growing rhythmic challenge
as the game progressed, but was not necessarily manageable for
all players. Patapon 2 eliminates this potential issue by giving
players an option to play at an easier level until they get the
hang of the game's rhythm, at which point they can switch back to
the standard play mode if they wish. Also new with Patapon 2 is
'Fever Alert.' Through this players are kept aware of the
agitation level of their Patapons via on-screen alerts, allowing
for precious seconds needed to string together the necessary
combos to extend Fever Mode when need be.
