Face Model: Toshiro Mifune
The protagonist of this game is a fierce young samurai, constantly moving from one bloody and gritty fight to the next.

Genma
Usually found dwelling in the lowest depths of hell, the Malice enveloping Kyoto has brought these fiends into the world of the living. Their ceaseless atrocities have plunged the capital into a state of dread and panic.
Hitotsume Gasa
Capable of wielding swords, bows, and shields, these Genma tend to attack in groups. They are driven purely by their basal urges to kill and devour people.
Byakue
An immensely destructive Genma, possessing unfathomable strength that allows it to swing its giant axe with great ease.
The more stained in its own blood it becomes, the greater its power grows.
Action
Equipped with an Oni Gauntlet, Musashi is granted power beyond human limits. Besides giving him the strength needed to cut down the Genma, it also holds numerous other abilities, such as being able to absorb Genma souls and convert them into a power source to further enhance its wearer. But who is behind the voice that rings out from the gauntlet?
Setting
The game is set in Kyoto, home to countless shrines and temples, such as Kiyomizu-dera Temple. Twisted by Malice, the face of the capital starts to take on an eerie and foreboding appearance.
