About This Game

Set in ancient Japan, the story centers on a new protagonist, Jubei Yagyu, on a quest for revenge as he battles a demon army led by Nobunaga Oda — a sinister warlord who wiped out the Yagyu clan. Over the course of his journey, Jubei learns of his oni heritage, which grants him the power to slay demons, and meets new allies who likewise long to bring Nobunaga down.
