Overview

Way of the Samurai, known in Japan simply as Samurai (侍?) is a PlayStation 2 (PS2) action-adventure game developed by Acquire and released in 2002. Set in 19th century Japan, the player takes on the role of a ronin who wanders into a remote village and becomes involved in a conflict between rival clans. A notable feature of the game is the branching storyline, which allows player decisions to radically alter the course of the story. An updated version titled Samurai Kanzenban (侍〜完全版〜?, lit. "Samurai Complete Edition") was released in Japan in 2003. It features bug fixes and additional content. The game was followed by a number of sequels on the PS2. Way of the Samurai was also released on PlayStation Portable on September 18, 2008 in Japan; prior to the release of Way of the Samurai 3.[1]
