If you’ve been following me on Twitter during the last month or so you’ve most likely seen my tweets swearing talking about Sengoku Basara. It’s really all I’ve been doing for the last month. In a desperate attempt to get something out of all the time I spent playing it (which is like 200 hours), I figured I might as well review it.
Sengoku Basara: Samurai Heroes is actually the third instalment of Capcom’s Sengoku Basara series, but the first one to be released in North America under the name Sengoku Basara. The first Sengoku Basara game received an overly localized release here under the name Devil Kings, and the second one was never released here at all. Apparently Capcom thinks just dropping the third game into a market with no real exposure to the series is a formula for success. But I digress. I’m not here to talk about what a terrible idea it may have been to release the game here, I’m here to talk about the game itself.
