A Preview Of The Awesome Gaming Offerings From Wii’s Muramasa: Demon Blade

Despite providing a vast selection of exclusive titles tailored for its own unique control style, the Nintendo Wii is often overlooked for its action/RPG exclusives. That said, one title unveiled at the end of 2009 took the software sales by storm and won high praise throughout gaming circles; Wii’s Muramasa: Demon Blade.

The title follows two sword slingers as they battle their way towards their own missions. Kisuke is a youthful Ninja fighting to regain his memories whilst tracking down the ultimate sword, and Momohime, a samurai girl overtaken by an evil spirit. Wii’s Muramasa: Demon Blade is tailored towards the great skills both of these characters exert as master sword users.

Gamers can utilize three varied control methods; the Wii remote itself, or by employing the Gamecube controller or the classic one. Additionally, in a neat development, gamers can opt to play Wii’s Muramasa: Demon Blade as a focussed RPG, urging levelling up, or as a clean cut action adventure.

Visually, this title excels where mostother Wii productions might falter. Drawing paralells to Square Enix’s Odin Sphere, the title demonstrates a classic Japanese art style currently becoming popular amongst gamers. There’s a vast range of swords to collect and forge throughout the campaign too, steeping the audience in sword mythos.

Wii’s Muramasa: Demon Blade is an awesome exclusive title which definitely deserves the praise it has garnered thus far. The differing play styles and impressive graphics offer a title which deserves multiple playthroughs, a definite pick for fans of feudal Japanese ethos and warrior ways!
