‘Yo-Kai Watch 2’ Bony Spirits Vs Fleshy Souls: Which Version Should You Choose?

Yo-Kai Watch 2 is coming Sept. 30 and there are two versions of the same game, like the Pokémon games but unlike the first Yo-Kai Watch.

So what makes Bony Spirits and Fleshy Souls different? Like the Pokémon games, the type of Yo-kai that appear in both versions are different so players must have both versions or find someone to trade with in order to complete their medallium.

Your pre-order will also give players access to two different Yo-kai depending on whether you pre-order Bony Spirits or Fleshy Souls.

Both physical retail versions will also come with a Jibanyan medal that lets everyone’s favorite cat Yo-kai perform a new Soultimate move.

Here are the differences between Yo-Kai Watch 2 Bony Spirits and Fleshy Souls.
