Release

Setting

The game takes place on Earth's moon, a world of towering space elevators, bullet trains, and opulent districts where the shogunate elite bask in Earth-like comforts from artificial gravity to simulated day and night. Each lunar metropolis is an homage to a revered era in Japanese history and a symbol of the SOL Shogunate's dominion over the solar system.

Protagonist

Players control Yuzuki, the shattered heir of a once-powerful samurai family massacred by a rival clan. With her family gone, Yuzuki becomes an outlaw ronin, and the game follows her revenge arc across the moon.

Combat

Combat is fast-paced and weapon-focused. The katana is the signature weapon, but it is not the only option. Players exploit opponents' elemental weaknesses through the Vulnerability Matrix system, with dynamic, cinematic, multi-phase boss fights at the heart of the campaign's encounter design.

Augmentation

Yuzuki can evolve herself with bio-ceramic skin, enhanced vision, and weapon upgrades to become the ultimate space samurai, blending sci-fi augmentation with traditional samurai weapons re-engineered for multi-planetary warfare.
