The red-haired assassin Himura Kenshin is joined by former Shinsengumi member Saito Hajime and brawler Sagara Sanosuke in a 3D hack 'n slasher. The background of the storyline hews close to the Kyoto episode arc (ep28 to 62) in the animated television series.

In the transition from the Bakumatsu Period in Japan's history to the Meiji Era, samurai were a dying breed and foreign trade was opened up with the West. The Meiji government set out to kill a malcontent named Shishio Makato who had aspirations of toppling the government and positioning himself in the seat of power. During the assassination attempt, Shishio was shot and burned but miraculously survived. Bandaged from head to toe like a mummy, Shishio conspires with ten warriors known as the Ten Swords or Juppongatana to set his plan of conquest in motion. To counter the threat, Himura, Saito, and Sagara trek out to put an end to Shishio's goals of kingship.

At the outset of the action, players may choose any of the three swordsmen and go through their individual stories. The game is played in fast-paced hack 'n slash action with standard slicing strokes that are coupled with special attacks which light up the screen.

Once the game begins, a training sequence opens up where Himura goes against an old dude in straw hat named Kashiwazaki Nenji or Okina.

» A fighter in a defensive posture cannot be broken and his defenses cannot be pierced. Sword slashes can be pounded out in 5-hit chains before they're reset. .

» After the two-session training mission, a music video of sorts plays which introduces the game with brand new artwork and animated sequences which feature all of the characters in the game practicing their skills against each other and battling in all-out fierce sword clanging action. Shishio and his 10 Swords also make an appearance in the video. It's all very dramatic and exciting to watch as fighters do their best to keep their honor - even Himura in his purple blouse...

Features:
» The voice actors from the animation series provided the speech for the main characters in the game.
» Supporting cast members featured in the game include Shinomori Aoshi, Misao Makimachi, Kashiwazaki Nenji, Yumi Komagata, Seijuro Hiko, and many others. All ten motley members of the Juppongatana also appear in cel-shaded styling.
