Akai Katana

Akai Katana


Developer: Cave
Publisher: Cave
Genre: Action/Shooter

Akai Katana combines the spirit of adventure offered through a true side-scrolling experience with the adrenaline-filled gameplay of today's bullet hell genre. Players are tasked with restoring peace and order to the world they once knew while taking on a tyrannical empire of bloodshed. The Games on Demand version supports English.

Akai Katana features:
  • Gorgeous hand-drawn artwork
  • Full HD 16:9 support
  • Three modes of gameplay: Origin (Arcade), Slash and Climax
  • Fully animated UI
  • Original Arcade settings (optional) for an authentic experience
  • Online leaderboards and replays
  • Local two-player co-op
  • Frantic 'bullet hell' action

The story of Akai Katana is set in a parallel world resembling Japan's Taisho period, where the people have discovered the powerful Blood Swords. Requiring human sacrifices to unleash their immense destructive power, these swords have been used by the empire to crush neighboring countries. However, all the bloodshed and power gained through sacrificing close family members has made some of the swordsmen think twice. With new fighter planes and the powered up swords at their disposal, this small band of rebels now fight back against the tyrannical empire.
