A Look At The Awesome Gaming Features From Wii’s Muramasa: Demon Blade

Whilst providing a wide selection of exclusive games tailored for its own original control style, the Nintendo Wii is often forgotten for its action/RPG exclusives. However, one title released towards the end of 2009 took gaming sales by storm and won great praise throughout gaming circles; Wii’s Muramasa: Demon Blade.

The title tracks a pair of sword slingers as they fight their way towards their own missions. Kisuke is a youthful Ninja struggling to regain his memories whilst tracking down the ultimate blade, and Momohime, a samurai girl overtaken by an evil spirit. Wii’s Muramasa: Demon Blade is tailored towards the unique skills each of these characters employ as master warriors.

Players can utilize three different control methods; the Wii remote itself, or by employing the Gamecube controller or the classic one. Additionally, in a smart development, players can opt to play Wii’s Muramasa: Demon Blade as a focussed RPG, urging levelling up, or as a simpler action adventure.

Graphically, this title impresses where most Wii productions might fall behind. Drawing paralells to Square Enix’s Odin Sphere, the title features a traditional Japanese art style currently becoming popular amongst players. 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 a great exclusive game which undoubtedly deserves the kudos it has amassed thus far. The differing play styles and impressive graphics provide a title which merits multiple playthroughs, a clear choice for fans of feudal Japanese culture and warrior ways!
