Samurai Gojiro Kiryuu comes to the American West in search of his brother. His journey takes him to a corrupt town ruled by a sinister land baron named Goldberg. Though Gojiro isn't interested in righting wrongs he is soon caught up in the town's problems: killing highway robbers protecting a woman from would-be rapists and thwarting Goldberg's machinations. Focused on destroying Gojiro Goldberg unleashes an endless stream of minions... all fodder for Gojiro's blade. But Goldberg has an ace up his sleeve...Samurai Western is a third-person action game. Gojiro's blade is more than a match for Old West weaponry as he can ably deflect or sidestep bullets. As Gojiro completes levels he upgrades his skills unlocks new swords and stances and adds Western accessories to his wardrobe. Primarily a single-player game Samurai Western has a two player co-op mode and unlockable characters for both modes.
