description
Experience sensory overload with CAVE's latest addition to the shoot-em-up arena, Akai Katana.
Set in a parallel world resembling Japan's Taisho period, 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 neighbouring countries. However, all the bloodshed and power gained through sacrificing close family members has made some of the swordsmen reconsider. With new fighter planes and the powered up swords at their disposal, this small band of rebels now fight back against the tyrannical empire.
Created specifically with the Xbox 360 in mind, Akai Katana is the first CAVE release to feature horizontal combat in sumptuous HD and eye-watering full 16:9 support.
Prepare for a new definition of 'bullet-hell'!

shoot'em up forever
Comme toujours, c'est du grand Art signé Cave. Cet éditeur est un mythe jeu prenant et addictif dont on ne se lasse jamais.

Challenging
Old school shoot em up, the developer is an expert at making these types of game, very challenging and very pretty to look at.
Good price for a good game.

Great shooter, a must have for fan of the genre. Little pricey, but worth it.
