Relive Akane's bloody last night again and again as you master fluid hack-and-slash combat with one-hit kills. Raise your body count sky high to secure her sweet revenge against the Yakuza scum who killed her parents when she was only a child! The heart-thumping soundtrack will get you in the zone for a spree of frenetic combat set against the neon cyberpunk backdrop of a futuristic Mega Tokyo. If at first you don't succeed, die and die again.

  • Master addictively fluid hack-and-slash combat using your trusty katana and pistol.
  • When you die—and you will die—quickly restart to jump right back into the action.
  • Enemies will spawn at a gradually increasing speed to keep you on your toes.
  • Unleash the Dragon Slash and Dragon Slayer, special attacks that require adrenaline attained from killing enemies to execute.
  • Try to make it to the boss to secure Akane's revenge! He evolves and gets stronger based on how many times he's been killed, so stay sharp to secure victory.
  • Strive to clear achievements such as shooting 50 foes in one playthrough or reaching 30 kills with 100% katana accuracy.
  • Improve your score to unlock extras that enhance combat, like new katanas, pistols, cigarettes, boots, and gadgets.
  • Get in the killing zone with flashy pixel graphics and a heart-thumping soundtrack.
