It was released for the [[PlayStation 2]] and [[PlayStation Portable]] on [[2005]]-[[11-24]], and for the [[Nintendo DS]] on [[2005]]-[[12-24]]. It has not been released in the U.S. or Europe. ''Puyo Puyo Fever 2'' is the latest installment in the ''[[Puyo Pop]]'' (or ''[[Puyo Puyo]]'' in Japan) [[puzzle game]] series. [[Compile (software company)|Compile]], the original creator of the ''Puyo Pop'' series, played no part in the creation of this game, as it had been bankrupted and dissolved for some time before development began. [[Sonic Team]] began this project to keep the series alive, but redesigned the entire package into something of its own, adding new features, new cast characters, and gameplay elements along the way. ==Gameplay== The new game takes place in Primp Town, home to the magic school of the last game, now used for the game's 9 courses. It also contains a tower (for endless puyo modes), a shop (to buy items, run by Oshare bones, however Rider is seen there as well), a town hall (to change options and save), a museum (for viewing unlocked music, videos, etc.), and a playground (for multiplayer). You can explore these areas and talk to the people there, where they may give you items. The courses in this game consist of multiple encounters the character makes while they're reach their objective. Each encounter begins with a short conversation, always leading to a battle, excluding the final sequence of dialog in each course. Battles are much alike regular [[Puyo Pop]] gameplay with the addition of the changes made in [[Puyo Pop Fever]], as well a new items system. Items effect the gameplay and beginning of battles. Some items allow you to play as another character. The majority do helpful things, like dumping nuisance puyo on an opponent at the beginning, making attacks more powerful, setting up a chain for you to start with, or starting you with a couple points on your fever counter. Common items can be bought at Oshare bones' shop. The game boasts nine courses, three times that of the original Puyo Puyo Fever. Each of the three main characters (Raffine, Amitie, and Sig) has three courses, each with a different story. Three save files are allowed, as to track progress for multiple players. A new color of Puyo (Pink) [http://puyofever.sega.jp/news0512.html] is introduced in this game that was not in Puyo Puyo Fever. ===Multiplayer=== Multiplayer is argued to be the best feature of this game with a near-unanimous opinion among Puyo Pop players, especially in the [[Nintendo DS]] version which supports 2 to 8 players, as opposed to the others which only support 2 or 4. In this mode, one can play as any available character. ===Endless=== There are several types of Endless Mode, where one can practice Fever Mode, aiming for the highest score. In another, you complete small tasks as they are given. You can also play an original ''Puyo Pop'' which gets faster and harder until you lose. Other endless modes are entirely new, Including one where nuisance pink puyo (CHU puyo) drop at regular intervals. ==Characters== {{POV-check-section|date=May 2008}} There are 28 characters in Puyo Puyo Fever 2, 6 of which are unplayable, and have Cameo roles. Characters such as Popoi and Carbuncle are Cameos in the sense that they are with Ms. Accord and Arle respectively. Rei, who is the brother of Yu, isn't playable as such, but, like with Popoi and Carbuncle, is used to fight in partnership, in his case with Yu. Onion Pixy Girl, Butler, and Prince Salde Canarl Shellbrick III, are unplayable 'guest' characters. <!-- Deleted image removed: [[Image:Raffine Puyo Pop Fever 2.png|thumb|left|100px|Raffine]] --> ; {{nihongo|Raffine|ラフィーナ|Rafīna}} The 1st main character.

Her new "-lance" moves mostly involve her throwing a piece of chalk or Popoi, keeping the silly, slightly episodic overtones of the Fever world.
