Akai Katana Shin - Sony PlayStation 4 - Action - seitliches Scrollen - PEGI 12

This is a story about reviving hopes, set in the high-growth period of a fictive country that looks just like Japan. This period is called "Taisho".Thanks to high growth, technology developed itself rapidly and resources like coal or electricity have been replaced by a new resource called "Guiding ore". This Guidance stone can supply anything. Likewise, it can be used to create "Guiding katana", a special type of blade that can be held by anybody in possession of a special seal.When a Guiding katana takes the life of somebody, it transforms into a red sword, a "Blood Katana", and thus doesn't need flesh to accumulate Guidance. As a small country, to surpass foreign countries and to protect itself, a war broke out. Basho, the leader of the empire, formed an army of elites to fight neighbor countries. They are called "The Celestial Stems" and are praised by everybody. "This is a privilege to serve and protect one's country and one should sacrifice their life if it helps making the country great and powerful"; such are the words of the Emperor.However, this dictatorship led the Celestial Stems unit to divide into two factions. At the center of the rebel faction, those against the law established, there's Emperor Basho's own son, Kikyou Saionji.The rebel army's trump card came true with the completion of 3 fighters named "Shakevolt". Their sword counterparts, Kikyou and his team, made a ritual. The ritual consisted of 3 members wishing to sacrifice their life to become powerful swords.Kikyou and the others also created Blood Katanas, just like the Empire. But they bitterly regretted it and swore to turn this regret into power and win, no matter what. The soul shaking battle between the anti-imperial organization, the Gekkas, and the Celestial Stems, between justice and evil, is about to begin.
