Publisher Devolver Digital and developer askiisoft announce
Katana ZERO,
an upcoming side-scrolling action game coming to
Steam and
consoles in March. This features sword-slashing samurai action and a time-shift
mechanic that allows you to be kind and rewind past your mistakes. They show off
these features and the game's stylish throwback art in
this trailer. Here's
more on the plan:
Developer askiisoft and ninja enthusiasts Devolver
Digital have announced their partnership to bring the near-future samurai story
Katana ZERO to PC and console this March [katanazero.com].
Katana ZERO is a stylish neo-noir, action-platformer featuring breakneck action
and instant-death combat. Slash, dash, and manipulate time to unravel your past
in a beautifully brutal acrobatic display.
Sigh.
Look, we could give you all sorts of overwrought marketing language about Katana
ZERO and what an insanely b a d a s s game it is but let’s be honest - you’re
going to be way better off watching the trailer.
So just take a breath to prepare yourself and watch it:
