Official description

The year is 1878. The collapse of the Tokugawa Shogunate and the rise of the Meiji Restoration Era has brought an end to the age of samurai. Born to a time that no longer needs or welcomes them, these samurai are a far cry from the heroes and legends that preceded them. Way of the Samurai is a story of the samurai in their final days. These are turbulent times: on the Hill of the Six Bones, three groups wrestle for power. Into this conflict you are drawn, and your choices will determine its outcome. Alliances, deception, and betrayal are all tools at your disposal, as is dynamic 3-D combat featuring 40 different swords and 200 fighting techniques. Choose from dozens of unique characters and face off against a friend.
