Shape your own story with numerous choices and multiple endings.

As a nameless warrior—a ronin—your destiny evolves based on the choices you make. You will encounter historical figures and factions supporting different ideologies, such as the anti-shogunate faction leader Ryoma Sakamoto or the shogunate-affiliated organization Shinsengumi led by Isami Kondo, allowing you to fully experience the tumultuous Bakumatsu period. You will face significant decisions, such as whether to assassinate or protect key figures like Naosuke Ii, and craft your own history through a multi-ending system.

Customize freely your weapons and combat styles to enjoy an accessible and in-depth combat system.

You can choose from various melee weapons like katana, spear, and odachi, each with multiple combat styles. By freely combining these based on enemies' weapons and your own combat style, you can enjoy a wide range of tactics. You'll find also ranged weapons like guns and bows, as some situations may require using them.

Explore beautiful cities of Edo, Yokohama and Kyoto within an open world.

In the mixed cultural landscape of Edo, Yokohama, and Kyoto during the Bakumatsu period, you can explore stunning scenery enjoying seasonal changes like cherry blossoms and autumn leaves. You can use a grappling rope to climb onto rooftops and the glider Avicula to glide through the air. Additionally, you can capture your favorite views using the Photo Mode.

Customize your character to give them a unique look

From their facial features, hair, and makeup to their body shape and voice, the protagonist—your Veiled Edge—is yours to create. As you progress through the story, you’ll acquire new clothing and gear to customize their appearance even further.
