The low down- there's been a fall out; nuclear weapons went irate and winter ensued, leaving the Earth in complete shambles. Technology has been lost, and now it comes down to bare-bone survival.

Chaos is all inclusive as numerous corrupted thugs/gangs pillage whats left of the innocent and good folk as opposed to helping restore what little peace they could upon the desolated Earth.

All hope seems abandoned as no one can seem to stand up to these hardened thugs with supernatural powers in the upheaval, however, there is one man who rose from the desert, a mysterious man with seven scars, fueled by vengeance who knows the ultimate killing art that will condescend every punk he comes across in trying to help the weak and unfortunate. His name, Kenshiro, the successor to the unrivaled martial art known as Hokutoshinken.

Hokuto no ken is the first game based on the anime released on the Playstation One console, the gameplay is a turn based fighting game, the player has to choose 5 different movement and after that press the Square button to fill a bar and activate those movements, the difficult part is fill that bar before that enemy do it since the first one in fill it is the one that will do that turn movement.

The game features 3 game modes:
- Story mode
- Vs computer mode
- VS 2 Player mode
