In this historical adventure, in 1860s Japan, injustice reigns, and as the samurai era wanes, a swordsman will change the course of history. Follow the story of Sakamoto Ryoma, a disgraced swordsman seeking the assassin of his master to restore his name, whose actions ignite a revolution.
Main features:
- Cardiac action and varied weaponry: Players will plunge into visceral combat that blends swords and period firearms, with the option to switch between four distinct fighting styles: Swordplay, Firefight, Mad Dance, and Free Fight. A vast arsenal marks the historical transition between classic melee combat and modern armed conflicts, allowing players to train and enhance their abilities to unlock even more powerful ones.
- Soldier Cards: Players can collect and level up Soldier Cards, items that grant temporary boosts or special abilities, such as new attacks or stat bonuses. Some of these cards feature brief appearances of special guests, including the wrestling icon Kenny Omega, actor Rahul Kohli, and others. All special guest Soldier Cards are available globally as free downloadable content.
- Historic samurai epic: An optional in-game glossary enriches the historical foundations of Like a Dragon: Ishin! with the personalities, locations, and events that dot its adventure.
- The meeting of tradition and modernity: Like a Dragon: Ishin! expands on its 2014 predecessor, released exclusively in Japan, with localisation support, new content, and, thanks to Unreal Engine 4, a beautifully remastered graphics and advanced features for modern platforms.
