Muramasa: The Demon Blade Screens #2

Courtesy of Gamekyo, we have a new batch of href="http://www.gamershell.com/wii/muramasa_the_demon_blade/screenshots.html">screenshots from Muramasa: The Demon Blade, a video game developed by Vanillaware exclusively for Wii and due to be published in Europe by Rising Star Games and in North America by Marvelous Entertainment USA with XSEED Games. Based on ancient Japanese lore, Muramasa: The Demon Blade plunges players into the mystical Genroku era, ruled by the skilled shogun Tsunayoshi Tokogawa. But this culture is threatened; Tokogawa's thirst for power leads to a conflict over the enormously powerful, though cursed, Demon Blades. Players take on the role of a male ninja or female kunoichi, utilising their ninja prowess to traverse the clever side-scrolling levels that feature vertical progression as well as the traditional horizontal stage advancement. Muramasa: The Demon Blade will be available in Spring 2010.
