*We now have our first look at Ghosts’ upgraded form, Ghost Tokon Boost! This design adds a flame motif to Ore Damashii and greatly enhances his abilities.
*Tokon Boost Damashii gets a new weapon- the Sunglaslasher! This sunglasses-shaped-saber can hold two Eyecons and perform combo attacks.
*A THIRD Kamen Rider for this series has been confirmed- Kamen Rider Necrom will be joining the battle for Damashii! While the new design remains hidden in silhouette, Necrom will henshin using a wrist-mounted changer (tentatively know as the Megaulouder.)
*Last but certainly not least, we also have brief teasers for the next two Damashii forms- Goemon and Ryoma along with three upcoming Eyecons– Grimm, Sanzo and Himiko.

Some new information regarding the upcoming Movie War between Kamen Rider Drive and Kamen Rider Ghost has surfaced online!
Of particular interest, recent reports indicate that Movie War Genesis will be presented as a single contained story featuring both Riders. This is a drastic change of pace from previous Movie Wars, which generally feature three separate story bits (one for each Rider and only a short teamup at the very end).
The director of Movie War Genesis has also been announced- Osamu Kaneda, veteran of Kamen Rider Gaim Gaiden and Super Hero Taisen will direct the film. The script will be written by Makoto Hayase– a newcomer to the tokusatsu genre.
Movie War Genesis will be released in theaters on December 12 2015! Stay tuned to TokuNation as we keep you up to date on all cinematic details!
