The sequel to the most original and realistic fighting game - bigger, better and more brutal than ever. No life bars, no time limits, no mercy. And a single blow can still make the difference between life and death. 12 new warriors for a total of 20. New weapons, subweapons, stances and moves. 6 fighting modes, plus first-person view option. Each character follows their own story path, with unique encounters and endings. Two-handed swordplay, throwing weapons, mud-slinging and more. Unique body damage system allows you to incapacitate or kill with one well-placed strike. Run, dodge and slash through huge 3D settings.
