In a time when the world is moving forward on the path of war toward unification, the appearance of new forces and the presence of foreigners plotting a conspiracy threaten this land. In this work, you will follow the intersecting stories of Naoe, a ninja and assassin from Iga, and Yasuke, a strong samurai whose stories have been handed down in historical fact. Through each story, you will meet important historical figures and share your destiny with these two people who will open up a new era for Japan.
Naoe and Yasuke have unique quests, skills, weapons, and status, allowing them to enjoy different play styles. Explore different ways to achieve your goals by utilizing Naoe’s stealth and Yasuke’s combat abilities. Naoe can use light, shadow, sound, and changes in the environment to deceive the enemy and carry out covert operations. On the other hand, even if Yasuke is surrounded by enemies, he can face them off with merciless attacks.

From magnificent castle towns and lively ports to peaceful shrines and idyllic landscapes, Japan during the Azuchi-Momoyama period is vividly depicted using the power of the latest Anvil engine and new generation consoles.

You can also train new allies at the hideout.
