Samurai Maiden (サムライメイデン) is a hack and slash video game developed by SHADE Inc. and published by D3 Publisher. It was released on Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, on December 1, 2022, in Japan and December 8 internationally.
Gameplay[edit]
The player controls Tsumugi Tamamori, a Japanese high school student whisked away from modern day to Honno-ji in Sengoku era. There she meets the three kunoichi known as the Gokage. Helpful Iyo precocious Komimi and flirty Hagane help Tsumugi take on Nobunaga Oda, who has been reimagined as a villainous leader of an undead army. Tsumugi runs around and fights zombie samurai with her katana. The Gokage are not playable but can be switched out for one another and help out against enemies. Tsumugi can preform the "Devoted Heart Technique" which involes her becoming physically intimate with one of the Gokage. This provides a tremendous power boost to Tsumugi and encases her katana in fire (with Iyo), ice (with Komimi) or lightning (with Hagane).
