Samurai Champloo: Sidetracked

Samurai Champloo: Sidetracked steps out of the hack-and-slash action genre and offers a new way to swing a finely-honed samurai blade. Set in Japan with the hip hop feel of the hit TV series of the same name, this title allows gamers to breathe life into a “lost episode” as one of three playable characters ­ Mugen, a reckless samurai with break-dancing fighting style, calculated Jin who abides by the decorum of Bushido, and a mysterious new character exclusive to the video game. Stranded in the northern land of Ezo (current day Hokkaido) in search of the “samurai who smells of sunflowers,” the player must face foreign mercenaries, master swordsmen, diabolical assassins, mythical beasts and gangster monkeys.
