Muramasa: Revenant Blades Announced for PS5, Switch 2, Switch, and PC
Publisher Marvelous and developer Vanillaware have officially announced Muramasa: Revenant Blades for PlayStation 5, Switch 2, Switch, and PC via Steam.
The upcoming action RPG is scheduled to launch in early 2027.
This new release serves as a comprehensive package that combines the original Muramasa Rebirth with the Genroku Legends add-on content.
Players will explore a vibrant world rendered in 4K resolution that draws heavy inspiration from Japanese mythology and the culture of the Genroku era.
The game features six different protagonists who each possess a unique fighting style to navigate the side-scrolling landscape.
Combat focuses on fluid hack and slash mechanics ranging from traditional swordplay to specialized ninja techniques.
One of the more unusual gameplay elements includes a horde of cats that players can summon to assist in battle against various spirits and villains.
This announcement was accompanied by a new trailer showcasing the refined 2D action and updated visuals.
Fans of Vanillaware can expect the same high level of artistic detail found in their previous titles, such as 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim.
The project continues the long-standing partnership between Marvelous and Vanillaware to bring classic titles to modern hardware like the Switch 2 and PS5.
